 BTW the boots in all our cars have nothing except what came in them - spare tyre and tools I guess. Except for the Cortina - it also has the battery and a suitable device to make it extremely difficult for someone else to start

Pretty clean in the wagon.....plastic tub strapped to the side with muddy boots and jumper leads, and a rain jacket.
My old fairlane was much more interesting. Tool box, jumper leads, couple of old mobiles, load binder/ocky straps, 'courier' magnet (never know when you need a quick parking spot LOL!) Bottle of coolant/oil, spare power window switches, spare cluster, trolley jack, and old cds....only reason I remember all that is because when I sold the car I threw it all into a box that I only just discovered in the garage yesterday

Heaps of stuff actually, Boxed 12" sub & amp behind the rear seat. Also built a false floor to accommodate the 18" spare wheel (features 1 big lift up lid on the left & 1 small flap above the spare wheel). Strapped to the top of the falsy is a trolley jack+handle & a powder extinguisher. Underneath on the left I have a first aid kit, a similar sized tool box (spanners-ratchet-sockets-knife (special purpose)-12V tester-fuses-zipties-elec' tape). On the right side (inside the spare-under the flap) I have velcro pack set's of flat & phillips screw drivers, set of 2 shifting spanners with pliers & wire cutters, 2 wheel brace's (different styles), 3lt water bottle, wet weather gear, ratchet straps (for trailer use). But by far THE most important item in my boot is a large heavy duty garbage bag! What's the bag for I hear you ask, greasy car parts...no...a poncho perhaps...no, I have always sworn & declared that should I hit a kangaroo which causes damage to my vehicle, I will most definitely have the last laugh & final say by way of bagging up the corpse (if not dead, this is where the "special purpose" knife comes in
 ), throwing it into the boot & taking it home, to be enjoyed as a roast at a later date!

I keep absolutely nothing in my boot. I hate having anything in my car that isn't necessary. In fact, I even hate having 'stuff' in the glovebox or in the centre console. I might keep a pair of sun glasses and a pen in there, but that's it.

Four 30x9.5 all terrains on rims, four Falcon tyres on rims, fire extinguisher, queen mattress, battery, spotlight out the back window (for tailgaters), assorted tools, bottle jack, various blankets and doonas, tarp (to separate dirty bits from bedding). That's all I can think of for now.
Yerp, the old panelvan can swallow a fair bit.

Thinking from when i opened it quickly yesterday,
-Camera and accessories (tripod, flashes lenses etc.) -2 buckets worth of car cleaning products -2 folding chairs -20 Wheel nuts -Spare wheel, wheel brace and jack -Large sub box housing 2x12" subs -2 amps -Distributor (no idea when that made its way in there) -Ford rubber bumper bar protector flappy thing (came as an accessory on B-series) So glad I have a day off tomorrow to clean half the crap out and back into the garage. The good thing about having so much in there is that nothing rolls around haha.
