A surprising amount of stuff!

2 spanners
A tie (those things made of material you put round your neck)
A bit of string
A spare pair of glasses (which I doubt I could see thru well enough to drive)
Numerous pens (none of which probably work)
Pad of Post-its
A can of deodorant
A box of matches
A pair of broken scissors
A roll of sellotape
A knackered big-end shell
A postcard
Book of stamps

Everything else in there was really useless so has been chucked :rolleyes: :D

It's not the airbag that robs space otherwise used for the glovebox. In Mondeo's/406's, S14/S14a, and other similarly styled cars they have had to make a small space in the area just above the glovebox to allow owners to keep their spare slippers warm.

Also, I had always wondered why on earth so many s14a's where automatics. I had mistakenly assumed it was to do with the age of their owners, but on further reflection I now realise how hard it must be for them to fill a pipe whilst also trying to change gear.

I dunno what's in my glovebox.

It's on the g/f's side of the car and she won't let me near it. Probably full of make up and hairspray and stuff. :(

A bottle of oil, and a bottle of water.

The car uses litres of the stuff on short journeys :)
