We carry our emergency kit in our top box,.. we have two sleeping bags, torch, food/cooking equipment, clothing, boots and a few odds and ends

Inside the car, we always carry a set of snow chains,...its a standing joke here, because they are in the car all year round Smile,..also jump leads, tow rope and tools

Lots of stuff. I struggle to get any shopping in the boot, normally has to go on the back seat. Most of the above, always a few different methods of cooking, few of the experimental (I don't know what the "experimental" bit refers to - hopefully the flavours rather than some dodgy ingredient) 24 hour rat packs, warm clothes, spare boots, baofeng, water, wind up radio, lots of sharp things, stock occasionally, the GHB & EDC (too many contents to list), toilet paper, wet wipes, nappies, dog food, general car stuff (fluids etc) and 20 liters of petrol

In my car I really don't have much, just a spare jacket and a folding shovel. I should really sort that out......

Jump leads, tow rope, first aid kit, torches, spare bulbs and fuses, wipes, sweeties, spare phone and blanket. I drive an old Defender with all terrain tyres so snow chains and suchlike aren't needed.
