Spares on long journey

Post by CJRW42 »

Am soon to embark on 3,000 mile round trip. Need to put together a list of emergency spares to carry on route. Any suggestions?

All your legal stuff:

All your paperwork (Licence/breakdown cover/European health card E111 etc etc)
Breath tester kit
2 hi visability vests
Bulb kit
Fuses
Warning Triangle
Fire extinguisher
Emission zone stickers (various city centres)
Motorway tax stickers (various countries ie: Switzerland)
Beam bender stickers for headlamps
GB sticker for rear

Don't forget to tell your insurance company where you are going and the bank that you will be making withdrawals abroad and what countries.
