No, that's not a problem. We're going to stop for a break after every 9 miles of driving - cup of tea, running repairs - and off we go again.
Aye, to be fair, all that silicone grease and the oil and antifreeze from lying under it every 9 miles, should keep the bigs off.
Tow strap.
Tirfor winch and accessories.
Plusgas, WD40 and aeroclean.
Paracord.
10" Bowie knife (10cm is as much as is useful and anything more is Muppet territory but it won't look impressive enough for the adventure holiday snaps).
Tyre compressor.
Plenty to read while waiting for the recovery truck, maybe your fishing gear too.
Quicksteel.
Water.
V8? Best stick a drum of oil in. Oh, and a spare set of HG.
Wet wipes.

Zika virus is the current panic.Serious about insect repellent though. We're blood donors and the nurses get very twitchy when we declare we've been to Italy. Western Isle virus, you get it off those big, f@ck off, winged alligators

In tank pump and starter motor are the things that have let me down in Russia and also have used one of the tyre sealers /inflater in an air bag that developed a leak worked for 2000 miles until i got back home

To be fair, the compressor stays in the car at ALL times - not just holidays.

Yep, forgot to mention I have tow strap (and jump leads).
Also got 2 tubes of quick steel and a pack of milliput - so should the need arise, I can cast and sculpt myself a new engine block.
I think a tub of swarfega might be better than wet wipes.
Sorefinger did you say? Don't forget the plasters!!
Take a different car??

Yours is the oil burner. Or was until it hit that boar.
Maybe if he towed a spare P38 behind him? And that had a trailer carrying another spare .. and that ...
So does mine.
Tow a diesel version behind....
