Must admit I've heard a lot of harping on about Puncturesafe. Apparently R.M. use it on their fleet. I tried it, but unfortunately for the wrong reason, cure rather than prevention. It is, after all, a preventative measure. So when I was stuck in Exeter, 30 minutes from home, a friend came out with this:

I'd swear by them. Everything you need in the kit, and unless it's a very awkward puncture, will get you home. Any occasions I've called breakdown services they've been next to useless, except in getting a tow. Granted I had more of a rip than a puncture, but I got home that day. You might find cheaper ones around too, and if you look on youtube, and guy who does "del's garage" videos went through plugging a puncture with a strip type thing, and rubber 'melting' compound. They looked very effective.
