Not much - I've had cars with bigger door pockets! :rofl:

Spare bulbs, tissues and hand wipes at a squash! (Nothing in the Z4 door pockets as they are pretty pointless)!

But I do now keep gloves in the boot for events like this, seeing as at 5p a go you are no longer likely to find a carrier bag in a bin in a lay-by on the way to Silverstone (never been a fan of fat birds) :-

Nothing as the hinge is broken and when I open it it tips the contents on the floor.

Sounds like the glove box is a weak point on the e85/86 :(

If you're gonna have a weak point in a car (and every cars got them) I'll settle for it being the glove box :D

Jolly Ranchers I brought back from the USA last year for that emergency sugar fix...oh, and a micro fibre cloth (but that has to be standard surely!)
