What do you guys carry in the boot for emergency puncture? What kit is available? Need a jack?
I had a puncture a little while back (a screw straight through my tyre), and drove it only like a couple of hundred meters, then the light came on warning me, so I pulled over and checked it, fat as...

When I went to have it repaired, they said it was unrepairable even from driving a few hundred meters cos I had shredded the inside wall of the tyre completely out (we have bad roads round here...), so in the future, if i feel it going wobly again, I am just going to call a tow Seeing as a space saver isn't exactly BBK friendly LOL
