Halfords tool kit inc sockets spanners etc.
Breaker bar.
Hi-lift Jack.
WD40.
Cable ties.
Odd bits of cable.
Leatherman multi tool - brilliant investment!
A jar of many things - washers, bolts, screws, choc-blocks.
Tow rope.
Shackles.
Couple of extra lights. Just coz I bought new ones, and thought I may as well chuck the old ones in the box incase I break one.
Some old screwdrivers.
Disposable poncho!
Some coolant.
Engine oil.
EP90.
Brake fluid.
This is all in a truck cab btw, stored behind my seats.
- apart from the highlift which is in the back!
I bought a couple of ex MOD ammo cases, as they're waterproof - and fit quite nicely behind the seats.
All the time I have been driving my landy, the majority of stuff has been used to fix various suzukis and jeeps on the way home from pay and plays! My landy just keeps chugging like a tractor!
If I had to choose two, I'd pick the leatherman, and the socket set.

Dont forget a good torch as well i got one for like 3 quid is LED so super bright and lasts hours. keep it in the glove box.
One of the handiest things I've got is a small 1/4" drive socket set which is great for all the little tiny nuts and bolts you get on a TD5, and all the ones that go into soft alloy components on the engine so you don't strip anything. Doesn't take up much room either. It's useful to have a 52mm socket for the hubs and as well as the popular sizes of spanner I got a 24 x 30mm ring spanner which covers the nuts and bolts on the suspension. Circlip pliers. Small bottle jack which is handier than the one Land Rover gives you if you just want to take one wheel off. It's also good for replacing the ball joint in your steering arm as you can jack the components into place and get the circlip in. They're not really tools, but it is handy to carry a spare fuel filter, oil filter and fan belt, light bulbs that you might need, and a few spare blade fuses in different ratings. Battery charge and boost device. Tyre pressure gauge and tyre inflator.
