Hi
I've also got an FRS & tbh the compressor & tube of sealant is utterly useless if you ever need to use it (speaking from experience)
If you really wanted to keep it original, you can usually source a compressor & the sealant via ebay when people sell bits off their car before selling (sounds like what previous owner of yours did) but by now the sealant will likely be out of date anyway
Most people on the RSOC tend to favour getting another full size FRS alloy with tyre & leave it loose in the boot (as it wont fit in the well)
or
The other option is to get a spacesaver wheel from an ST170 from a breaker, ebay, etc & use that as your spare
- all you need to remember is that if you get a front puncture the st170 spacesaver does not fit over the front brakes so you would have to fit the spacesaver to the rear & move a wheel from the rear to the front
Hope that helps
