welcome. what part of cork are you from? its supposed to be raining monday but you cant trust the irish weather. anyway. if its dry bring as many tyres as you can. then the main tools like. jack. wheel brace. spanners. screwdrivers etc. bring a litre or two of spare oil. sone antifreeze/coolent spare fuses etc. i wouldnt worry to much about anything else there will be plenty lads around to give a hand including myself if your stuck. hope that helps and roll on monday. cant wait.
