Couple of wire coat hangers. Zip ties, duct tape. I always have a few electrical connectors and a foot or two of wire onboard, a set of wire strippers is nice although a good basic tool kit needs a sharp knife of some kind and one of my personal favorites is an adjustable wrench, also known in the USA as a Crescent wrench, except the Crescent brand has greatly deteriorated over the years and better adjustable wrenches can be had...oh well, forgive the Crescent rant...

Fan belt. Ignition switch. Also kinda depends on how recently certain components have been changed. Make sure your spare tire is good and you have the proper jack and lugwrench. Radiator hoses, esp if you have one that feels spongy soft anywhere...better yet change those before leaving.

And most importantly a credit card and cell phone.
