Perhaps if I emptied some of the junk out it would go a bit faster

Off the top of my head the contents of my trav boot for the last few months has been...

Spare wheels (2 off different sizes)
Disc brakes (inc uprights and torsion bars)
Type 9 gearbox
numerous small tools
empty tool box
lead replacement, 12v lead lamp and lots of bits and pieces I havent seen for months...

to much junk in all honesty plus many parts for a breakdown including....... wait for it bmce....3 coils! long story!

A sock and my foot.


Sorry, couldn't resist.

If we're talking Minors only, I have:

A bit of old wing beading
A perished headlight rubber
Many leaves
Lots of rust
Assortment of rusty bolts
Broken Bonnet hinge

Err.. at the moment it has no boot 'door' so is just open to fresh air so..

A load of leaves.
Some cool spiders
A stack of plastic bread trays
Some garden twig cutters (cant remember the proper name)
Some laminated 'get lost' signs for the company car park.

None of the above was actually put there by me but the car has remained stationary long enough its at the stage where its become a dumping ground. Stage 2 is when it becomes nuisance; 3 a defining local landmark.
