Ive got 3 years free AA cover with the car and am considering a bit of car dieting. What do you think?

is it not the law that you need to carry a spare wheel?

unless you've got run-flat tyres or something maybe...

There's not much point in having a can of tyre weld if your tyre has a 4 inch gash in it and try exp;laining to the AA man that you're on an unclassified forest road in the middle of nowhere.

Nonsensical voting options amended. I think Yes and No had been attached to the wrong options!

If anyone wants to change their vote now, let me know and I'll amend the tally.

No it's not illegal not to carry a spare. However, if you DO carry one, it's illegal for it to be unroadworthy.

Daft really
