Ummmm, maybe so but you should only really use a space-saver as an emergency "get you home" type spare. They have minimal grip compared to normal tyres and quickly disintrigrate. Do not use in any permanent way!

It would only be used as a space saver Dan, as it fits into the usual spare area.

They certainly did, as did the Scimitar SS1 and some 70s TVRs.Ratbag wrote:Didn't Scimitar GTEs and Zephyr/Zodiac mk4s also have underbonnet spares?

Jonathon, I was remarking more on Dales comment that he has "nearly a full set"

Didn't the glorious Citroen DS have the spare under the bonnet with the air in the tyre powering the windscreen washers? Now there's a thought Alex! MikeN.

What about in the side of the engine bay, attached to the inner wheel arch?
