Well I think you've covered pretty much all eventualities that can be repaired 'en route'. Ruairidh. The first photo shows a spare half shaft that you carried in the boot. Back in about 1997 in preparation for a trip into Europe I stored a half shaft inside the rear cross member of the Chummy I had then. Fitted into the cross member, wrapped up in cling film and held in place with two cable ties it wasn't needed on our trip and stayed there. It was still there in 2000 when we took the car into Europe again. I sold the car in, about, 2004 and, forgetting about the half shaft, it remained there. Time went on and the purchaser sold the car on and, in around 2010, I got a call from Ian McGowan, a long standing friend who was now the owner of 'my' Chummy, saying 'Hey, I've found a half shaft under the Chummy'. Is it still there Ian?
