UK / IRSH GLC owners spare wheel?

After getting a flat over the weekend i have realised that

a) my GLC did not come on runflat tyres and
b) there is no spare or jack or tools or anything else under the boot

is this standard for ireland / UK and what precautions have you taken?

I have a can of gunk and an pump that plugs into the lighter socket that i carried over from my last car.

I bought one of these -

Goes under the boot floor (which shuts) and comes with different bolts which you need.
Put together my own kit - bottle jack, jack pad and wrench - wrapped in a towel and sit inside the wheel (binned the wheel cover).
Yet to be tested but should allow limited mobility in the event of a puncture.

So which are you.....UK or Irish?
My( Irish) 250d came with non RF and a compressor with goo.

Are you sure you don't have these hidden under the boot floor?
