Emergency handbrake release and gearbox park release to be used in the event of an electrics failure.  Not supplied from a point in 2011 onwards as there's now another way to do it detailed in the handbook.

Should there be a small pair of plastic tweezers to pull of the wheel nut covers too or am
I confused with another car

PS clearly it was obvious that the tow hook was missing

My guess, possibly after-care cleaning kit?

I missed this thread for some reason and just asked a similar question.

Here is mine

First aid is in the side panel in the boot with the triangle.

I assume the hammer is to break glass..?
