Hey All!

During my recent broken TVR issue which some of you will have seen, I did a fair bit of reading about common issues and oddities with Chims.

This got me thinking that there are probably some spare bits I should keep in the car at all time to ensure that a small well known issue doesn't warrant a call to the AA.

Now obviously we can't all drive around with a boot full of spare ECUs, Diffs etc, but certainly having some spares of the small items that often cuase big issues would be worth while, especially if you are off on holiday!

So I will start off a small list below, but I am by no means and expert and new to the TVR game so please add any addtitional bits you all think its important to carry please do add them (along with part numbers if you know them). Also if you have part numbers or a recommend brand for any of the items I or others list please feel free to add them!
