Receipts from years ago, a fork, CD's, stereo face, random trim fixings and a box of matches that were in there when i bought the car 8 years ago... The interior istelf is clean, but i don't make a habit of clearing out the glovebox or other concealed storage in any car i own. I even found a bottle of "CK one" in there that i had from my youth.

A pack of plasters. Hate working on cars when ya cut yourself and have nothing to stop the flow so you can carry on.

I used to keep paperwork, etc, but since my car got stolen a few years back I realised how many bits the thieves got i.e. my name/address from my driving licence, a few letters, a £200 ring which I dropped in my car the night before it got stolen and couldn't find in the dark, a few spare car bits I kept in the boot, a Police trunchen thing (I had some trouble at the time ), so now I keep as little as possible in the car.

I STILL use cassettes, have a Kenwood KRC 855 RL headunit, ten disc changer in boot, on underside of parcel shelf, listen to radio 2 mostly and tapes would be Nancy and Lee, Gene Pitney etc, some from early 70's so doing well !!
I even had to get a new CD changer as my old KDC 603 would not play computer recorded ones, so got a KDC C719 MP, as this is the only one that works with old stereo's(kenwoods) on new CD's, CD-R.
Stereo is 12-14 years old repaired twice in that time, both times my fault cost around £200 total in repairs.
