where they recommend you don't fit a spare wheel
at all, as its too dangerous by and large etc etc...

Ford seem to go half way there - my Focus has got a
'get you home' spare wheel but no jack or wheel brace,

That is completely ****ing barking mad.

But doesnt cost much to add both.

so I'd have to call a garage or the AA to change it. Might
just as well have saved the weight and luggage space.
