I am planning a long trip in a month and want to know what spares or
unusual items I should be carrying. The trip will be from Hobart (Tasmania,
Australia) to Sydney (New South Wales) about 3000Km return. (Tasmania,
being an island, is connected to mainland Australia by ferry, so I won't
need a large rubber raft). I'll be travelling in my Moke, which is pretty
unpleasant at high speed with the roof up so unless it is raining I'll be
'au natural'. Great you say, but don't forget that July is the depths of
the southern winter.

Here is the list of things I've decided to take so far.

Points
Plugs
Jerry Can (Moke only holds about 4gals)
Repair Manual
Fanbelt
Oil 
Water
Brake fluid
Gaffer Tape (essential)
Spanners, socket set, screwdrivers etc

Anything else I need?

Tim
