What's in your boot?
I was walking through a parking lot a few days ago and saw a car with tons of junk in the boot (it was a small hatch-back so I could see inside). It got me to thinking about what I have in my MINI now and what y'all have in yours.
I have a microfiber towel and a small cotton towel from the last time my car was washed (had to take it to the touchless car wash as it was too cold for me to do it by hand), a picnic blanket and the MINI toolkit that comes with the car (MCS). Whats in your boot? |
The tool kit, jumper cables, a 12-volt spotlight, $10 walmart 12-volt tire pump, set of torx bits and a handle for them.

Visible to the average person walking by? Fire extingusher.
Hidden? I have: MINI tool kits, Blanket, snow brush, spare shirt, jacket with reflective markings, Disposabl,e camera, fix-a-flat, compressor, torqure wrench and socket for lugs, 2 1-ft glow sticks, 4 D-Cell Maglight, CB radio, paper towels, glass cleaner, GPS reciever for my laptop And on a regular basis I'll bring a camera bag and associated equipent and a backpack with various materials. Also it is not out of the ordinary for me to carry a tool belt and socket set. Compliments of my custom RSD again the fire extinguisher is all that is visible 90% of the time. :) |
Just my Mini supplied tool kit & a few blades of dried grass :grin:
I like to live on the edge :sly: |

Lets see,
MINI tool kit, LED warning flashers, and a Quart of oil. Also, since my MINI was delivered in Spain - it has the euro safety triangle in the blue case ( with all the "911" numbers for the euro countries embossed on it ) mounted under the rear shelf, and the euro first aid kit. :thumbsup: |
The jack, a quart of oil, rags, an ice scraper/brush, a collapsable shovel, a plastic 1-litre beer stein, and my MTTS atlas.

I see a couple of Minis pictured here, that would tend to get shot at in our neighborhood!
Anyway, currently in my boot is a Moss Car Cover, a tool bag, and a California Duster. |
