Ha ks for your reply, I'm good with the first aid kit and triangle, they came with the car (I have some spare too). I've got a breakdown flashing beacon that I've taken on many trips, driving Triumphs means a failure is always an option! Beam deflectors are still available but I'm not so sure they work or are useful with modern headlights anyway. On the old Triump, I've can easily use some LHD headlights but a modern is not so simple/cheap. J

In September I'm taking my Audi to Tuscany for a reaod trip holiday, we'll be driving a variety of roads through a few countries before we get there. It'll probably be 2500 miles + I've done a bit of this sort of thing in classic cars but never in a modern. I'm new to Audi having had a lifetime of Saabs and Triumphs. So my current preparation 'issue' is that I thought I'd get a little kit of spare bulbs and fuses to stash in the car but I can't seem to find one that doesn't have spurious pieces that I can't use in it. Of course I could go buy the individual pieces but I can't be the first person to want this? Thoughts? That got me here and so I thought I'd ask the group if there are other things that I should pack. I'll take a tool kit, tyre repair kit (car has a space saver), some spare fluids. What are your thoughts on headlight beam deflectors? We won't be doing much night driving - at least I don't plan to. I've hadnthe car just over a year and it's been 100% reliable so far. Thanks Jason
