Spare wheel?
Those E89 boots are bigger than they look
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.

Spare wheel?
With the roof up..not bad..but roof down
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

Put wheel in face down and put stuff inside wheel.
And of course you need jack and brace.

Next morning i went back to car had 2 flat nearside tyres, so even carrying spare wouldn't have solved the problem totally.
It happened down a dark rainy country lane with no mobile signal, car hit pothole in puddle.
Only option...drive on.
