| take what you feel you need, other teams will have differant things so will come togather in times of need, but dont plan for this as we are responsible for our own vehicles maybe one shock absorber ( im not taking one) as ive just replaced my brocken one which has probley been broken for most of this year a must for me is a spare wheel bearing kit with one spare stub axle as bearings have a annoying thing that they weld them selves to the stub axle, take the tools to do this !!! 15 litres of spare oil are on our list 5L of EP 90 ( dont forget EP 90 we did last year and needed it in switserland ) spare engine oil, and spare ATF for the gear box, brake fluid aswell a selection of spare fuses a couple of universal joints as there easy enough to change if they go ill be taking a spare clutch cylinder just because i seem to have one in case anyone else needs it, ill probley take a few other random items like fan belts and things spare bulbs remember to take more than you plan to break and all of the tools needed to fit the spare parts you take hope that helped a little cheers kieran |

| Spare ... Bog roll - Aosta and other campsites don't supply for some strange reason. Bog seat - Most places okay but in Calais there were none! Reason: Muslims squat on seats and break them - not racist, just a fact. Savlon - cuts/abrasions/bites/itchy chocolate starfish/Betty Swallocks Mmmm, maybe too much information!!! Wet wipes - for everything. Kitchen roll - for everything. Fridge - in case fridge No.1 breaks. Can't have warm beer in the evening now can we? Bubble wrap - for transporting all those bottles of cannabis-flavoured absinthe/brandy/gold watch/Vera Lynn/etc. bought in Andorra. ... and some fuses (plug-in type and glass type) in case the fridge/cigar lighter plug/Sat Nav packs up. | |

| Hi there, I don't remember seeing on the lists a few things that you must have for France and Spain. France you must have a spare set of bulbs and if you use glasses for driving then you must have a spare pair. Spain you must have a hi viz jacket or waist coat. I took a spare prop shaft, easier to change than a uj. I had one anyway so it would have been rude not to take it. Also took a few hoses for the same reason. Didn't need any of it But you know the rule according to sod. Best of luck | |
