Hello chaps,
I'm trying to put together a kit of spare nuts & bolts that are often handy when working on a rusty old 4. What sizes would you choose?

Alternatively I suppose I could get a set of too-long bolts and cut them to length when I need one.
 
I've just taken my exhaust off to clean and respray. I had to cut off two 8mm bolts and nuts that were used on the exhaust clamps, as they were badly rusted (being underneath the car)
I think the clamp where the exhaust goes through the engine compartment wall into the wheel area also has 8mm but that came off quite easily
 
Apart from some M7 fasteners which are a little hard to find, R4 bolts and nuts consist mainly of M6, M8, M10 normal threads (very easy to find).
