DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Seeing the thread on 911 toolkits I was wondering what tools and spares most of you guys carry ?

I've been popping my old snap on box of kit, which covers all eventualities just short of a rebuild, under the hood but thus far its only been ballast

Duct tape, credit card, mobile phone, breakdown rescue number

Porsche had it covered for the tools for all the likely basic 'roadside' repairs.

Spares are up to you for your model, year, journey plan, annual mileage, driving style, etc.

I carry electrical components in the main outside the usual stuff. If you do a search on this you will find Andy's list of essentials. Probably the main one is the mobile phone especially when traveling abroad.

Ah that sounds a bit like my experience...think I'll put together a simple roll with a 3/8 drive metric set, including plug spanners, combo spanners 6-19mm, flat and posi, pliers, torch, cloth and gloves. I'll carry oil , 6 plugs, spare lamps, fuses and some wire , duct tape and zip ties.

Book to read while I'm waiting

But Keith, where's the challenge in that...not to mention the chance of an "I fixed it with a paperclip, some sticky backed plastic and a pair of Vals old knickers" story at the pub.
