I would add to the above:
Steve Heaths Chim Bible....to give to the AA man!

Punture repair cannister
I've always carried a wire joining block (plastic thing with screws!)
incase a cable broke.

Spare 100 amp fuse, a leatherman and the old AA card.

Only time the car broke down was a blown 100amp fuse and of course I didn't have a spare on me, oh the indignity of being towed 10 miles home on the back of my own Disco !

Good thinking - someone said about a spare throttle cable?

SURELY all you need in a Chimp is a monkey wrench?

(Not my joke, I am sad to say, but too good not to borrow)

Forgot "Spare Auxiliary Drive Belt"...

SAD belt? Is that a belt that cannot cope with life around the waist?????

Hey, you've met me - can you imagine any belt that I own ever being happy?

You seem a happy kind of a guy, and at least your belt would feel wanted and loved, even if slightly over-worked...
