So, here in the UK we've just had a chilly reminder that winter is upon us shortly with very heavy frosts catching a few people out who haven't prepared properly. I thought it would be good to tap the collective mind of Usenet to generate a winter checklist of things that we should carry in our Land Rover's to be prepared for all winter eventualities such as breaking down ourselves, or acting the good samaritan when coming across another road user having broken down. Here's my starter for ten, please add as you think of more and I will summarise them all together on a web page ...
- Warm clothing (fleece, hat, gloves, etc)
- Spare clothing
- Shovel
- Recovery rope
- Recovery shackles
- Jate rings / recovery eyes
- Tool kit including essentials such as WD40, de-icer, lock de-icer.
- Fuel cans with unleaded and diesel in
- Funnel
- Spare coolant anti-freeze pre-mix
- Fire extinguisher
- Mobile phone
- Hi-lift jack
- Tyre pump
- Jump leads
