Correct answer
No.
A trailer spare wheel is not required as general mandatory equipment. For the car, Annex XII of the General Vehicle Regulations allows a complete spare wheel, a temporary-use wheel with necessary tools, or an alternative system offering sufficient mobility guarantees. Observe the limitations of the alternative used. It is therefore incorrect to claim every car must always carry a conventional full spare wheel.
