A pair of sliding doors and a conveyor belt.

Trainers broke one year so I bought a cheap pair from a Chinese shop, when I tried them on in the van they were different sizes, took them back and with all the same style out on the floor still couldn't make a matching pair so I had a refund.

In an earlier life, when I lived in my self build Iveco 60-10 ex moto cross, 6 tonner, I used to carry a load of spares and tools and even included a gas welding kit.

I changed (at different times) a gearbox and an injector pump and a clutch master cylinder, all on the road side.

Where I got the energy from I just don't know!

Recently I have had slightly newer vans and pay other folk to service/fix them.

But I do carry a fan belt for the van and a spare water pump and regulator for the dwelling area.

Fuses

 

[Wonders]

Spare bulbs and fuses. Former required in some countries.
Gorilla type sticky tape for anything else.

 

[icantremember]

From personal experience, if your motorhome is right hand drive take spare windscreen wiper blades.

[busby]

As you have a Renault Master I'd probably say another Renault Master would be your safest option

Nothing wrong with Renault..BUSBY.

 

[PG’s trips]

2 spare tyres, one for punctures and the other in case I don't like the local cuisine.

Guilty.

 

[mirfield]

High visibility jacket (unless you carry one anyway) - they are obligatory in much of europe.

And make sure it’s within reach of the driver’s seat.

[G-RMPS]

Small 3-in-1 oil
Small WD40
Plus some of above

I will obtain electronic copies of manuals, photos as necessary. I lug around 4kg of manuals which I rarely refer to (being a man!).

 

[RustyRuss]

Self amalgamating tape, it will fix ANY leaking pipe that isn’t required to take a lot of pressure. Cheap too and doesn’t have a “use by” date....
