I used to have:
* 3x scissor jacks
* spare tyre
* tyre iron and wheel brace
* jumper cables
* empty fuel can
* manual fuel syphoning pump

But since taking it to a mechanic for a RWC, 2 of the 3 scissor jacks and the wheel brace have vanished... :(

Oh, and before anybody asks, I had 3 scissor jacks in there because I wouldn't use just one if I need to jack up the car, I'd rather use at least two so there isn't so much weight on each one.

Not happy that I now need to buy a new wheel brace and replace the jacks, one of the jacks wasn't mine and I had borrowed off my brother and had planned on giving it back to him in a few weeks...

The only things in my boot are the 80 Litre gas tank and my trusty toolbox. Everything else just gets chucked in my console, glovebox and ashtray.
