RAC say

Should the vehicle break down while towing a caravan or trailer, we shall recover your vehicle together with the caravan or trailer. If your trailer or caravan breaks down then we can arrange for the recovery of your trailer or caravan but you will be liable for the recovery costs.

I'm not sure if they would change a caravan wheel but if you are in the C&CC you can add caravan cover to your RAC policy.

Not sure what happened there.With all the black.

Why not in the boot for "safety reasons". I could understand weight reasons.

It is important to restrain heavy items loose in the back, but it's not a reason for not carrying a jack.  Many people have to carry tools or equipment for their work.

Yes, thank you freeatlast, I did understand that stuff flew about the car when there was a change of direction. I do know it does that, but it isn't an issue if it is properly packed. Didn't realise that you were one of the few who managed to travel without a full car. Ours, as well as many other travellers, always seem to be so full that even a ball bearing couln't fly about on its own. And it is all tied down anyway.

Just wasn't sure what you meant about the safety issue thats all, not supposed to be a criticism requiring a full explanation of the physics in reply.
