I have compressor and sealant supplied with the car, but the factory fitted tyres are not self-sealing. I think they expect you to stay with self-sealing tyres if originally fitted or arrange your own repair kit.

I have 'self seal tyres' - 20" Bridgestones and no compressor/sealant was supplied or expected.

I do however keep a heavy duty tyre compressor and large sealant cannister (450ml) suitable for these large tyres in my boot, just in case !

Indeed. I bought an Airman kit. I have had to buy a 12v extension lead, as the only 12v socket is in the boot and it doesn't reach the front wheels!

Ha yes, you'll need that extension lead. That'll catch a lot of Enyaq owners out when they come to recharge their front tyres if they haven't got one.

compressor & self-sealant should be in the package, press your dealers to backorder them for you (free of charge) if not delivered with the car.

The car has self sealing tyres, so no kit.

I just unravelled the 12V cable from the supplied compressor to check it would reach all the wheels from the 12V socket in the offsideof the boot - it did. But it is the devils own job to get it back in the space allocated for it in the body of the compressor. I've done it so you don't have to!

Anyone packing an emergency 12v battery booster for those hopefully very rare occasions when the 12v battery fails and you're not near a mains supply? Was thinking I might get one to keep in the car for holidays, but not sure what spec to get. I'm thinking even a small one would be enough to get the car's electronics back online. Any advice would be welcome particularly if you have direct experience reviving an Enyaq with a dodgy 12v battery.

I was thinking about this too and hopefully will get it when there's a sale coming up ..
