There's never been one in any of my 3 Morgan's but I have had an under bonnet tool box in the Plus 8's for the jack and some spanners. I only ever travel with relays and a bit of wire, breakdown cover, credit card bottle of water and phone.

What to carry in your tool box rather depends upon what you use your car for: if you just potter around locally as suggested breakdown cover is perfectly adequate. If you're in the middle of Moravia on a rainy Sunday and you have a problem, even with breakdown cover good luck with finding, say, a Facet Silver Top fuel pump. It's much better to carry a decent tool kit and as many spares as you can fit in the car.

Relays, they’re in the glove compartment that’s why I know I’ve got those, was glad I had them once when the fan relay failed. In the tool tray I’ve forgotten - not needed since a couple of years ago when I had a flat tyre. Only other problem was the clutch master cylinder to slave pipe broke - no I don’t carry one now. It’s been so reliable over the 40k miles done since bought I don’t think about break downs now.

Hi folks Apart from the obvious spanner set, flat and crosshead screwdriver selection & fuses, what do you pack in your tool box ? Bodge tape, and super glue maybe  wouldn't go amiss I guess but anything specific to Morgan that might get you out of a sticky spot ? Bonesie Tow rope?

Yes the decision was made by  who complained about not being able to get the bread maker out from behind a pile of my tools.
