Wow! some very comprehensive tool kits here, A bit more advanced than an adjustable spanner and a roll of bodge tape.  Some stuff here I wouldnt have thought of so thank you, I will start up my own roll of bits and bobs.

Some good suggestions here for which I'm grateful but if we were to put all this advice together it might just be easier to tow a second Mog as a donor car for spares.

You’d be surprised at the space available. I have most tools/spares either in the tool tray beneath the rear shelf or under the seats.  seat is forward a bit too so room for storm cover behind it.

If I can just inject some realism into this.....
I carry a piece of wood to put under the jack if the ground is soft. Changing the wheel is a likely occurence at some point!
I carry a selection of spare fuses, a torch, and a fuse guide (I know the fuse guide is just a guide!).
Anything more than that on a modern Morgan is expecting a lot.
Even in a nice hotel car park with a supply of tea and biscuits wouldn't make a great day on holiday. And you'd need some car clothes. Having said that I did change a Metro Turbo exhaust in a hotel car park in Torquay once, using nothing more than the tools I carried in a roll and having borrowed some old clothes from the hotel owner!
I carry some baler twine to rehang the exhaust. And a test circuit and spare relays. I carry a tool roll but its more of a comfort blanket.
In the dark and wet, just phone for the AA/RAC!

Some good suggestions, but don't forget cable ties melt so I carry a small coil of annealed stainless wire, very handy if an exhaust hanger lets go

I carry a Halfords Motorists Tool kit like this, but with the rubbish tools replaced with better equivalents, and a couple of additions:  Also a range of spare bits and bobs like multimeter, wire, gaffa tape, jubilee clips, fuses and such in my home-made storage under the rear shelf:

Anything more than that on a modern Morgan is expecting a lot. Is there anything in particular you think is unrealistic?
