    Just an extra vote for Metrinch. I bought a set of sockets/spanners back in 1999 and they've been my daily since then. Can't rate them highly enough when you need a set that will cope well with damage left by a previous ham-fisted hack when you're in the middle of nowhere. Metric, Imperial, BA, Whitworth and "mostly rounded by previously inappropriate use of an adjustable spanner made of cheese". They do it all.

    If not already stated, Premium Care from NRMA or your State's motoring organisation. Benefits of accommodation, personal transportation, vehicle transport and monetary allowances if more than 1,000 kms from home. Saved my bacon on a few occasions, reducing what could have been a very expensive situation to a modest expense and inconvenience of time. Best part it takes up no space nor adds weight to your vehicle.

    Totally agree with MLD. Premium is the way to go and is worth every $. You only need to use it once to be convinced.

    Yes, can vouch for that as well... Used it back in 2014 heading to the Cape where the Alternator failed on our Prado... It's amazing how much these CRD 4wds burn up the power even when running no A/C, no Fridge, etc... could only manage 2>3hrs a time before having to swap out the starter battery for the Aux battery... Managed to get to Mossman before having to call RACQ... then free room/board for the next 3days
