I keep my car very tidy and free of clutter but for some reason, some things just stay when I have no reason for them too. For example I have a Blackberry hands free. It would be useful if it wasn't for the fact I've had an iPhone for 3 months. I also have a kite in the boot which I bought for my 5-year old and after a couple of poor attempts haven't flown it since (it does nothing but crash). It still lies in the boot though and has done for months. I should just remove them but for some reason "haven't got round to it".

So people of PH, what have you in your cars?

In the Skoda, not much. So old blankets that were used to protect the carpet when I went to the tip, and a carboard box with some training notes in (for work) that I have yet to remove.

In the Landy (weekend toy off roader) there is a whole host of crap I've picked up along the way. A filthy shovel with a broken handle, some half-decent tow rope and some real poor tow straps, wiring from stereo, spare starter motor, water, oil, jump leads, haynes manual, wellies and 40 litres of veg oil (fuel). A starnge concoction!!

I've got 2 CD's in the car, no reason for them as I play music from my iPhone which I always have with me or no music at all.

Must take them out as their taking up much needed room in the '5.

When I was with the UN in Lebanon in the 90's I had two Ak 47's and a Rosary beads in case the first two failed. Never did though, so still carry the rosary beads

In the glove box, pair of leather gloves, some rape tape and a 2xD maglite.

In the boot, pair of rapey trainers, 2 sleeping bags, tent, a couple of camping chairs and other random stuff that I never really use.

Soft soles so that they're nice and quiet
