Greenman Bushcraft is my suggestion as I ghost their site a lot hehe.
They sell a range of bags in OG and other colours some of them. Yes, they be Karrinor so a 'major' brand but prices aren't too bad form what I observe and really, do you want to skimp on quality to save a few quid?

These are quite good, and this place has the best prices I could find. http://www.outdoorvalue.co.uk/products/ ... e=googleps
I picked up the 80Litre and it is very good, they come in a range of sizes.

Re: B.O.B.s
Most cars today have easily removable interior panels and there is a surprising amount of space behind some of them. Worth baring in mind as they are ideal for stashing things and are not on display or taking up boot space. It can get damp in there, so make sure things are in sealed zip lock bags if need be.
Another idea is to lose the spare tyre, get some tyre weld in case of a flat and then use the spare space for BO equipment.

Re: B.O.B.s
Thanks guys - CC that bag there is spot on for me and the price is very good too. Are there many straps on it to attach something like axes, shovels, etc?

Re: B.O.B.s
Very few straps on it, about the only downside I have found. All I have strapped on the outside is a couple of roll mats

I have my EDC which has everything I really need, then I have my grab bag in my car which has more tools and better shelter/more food/more water, then I have my big one which is basically a home away from home in a bag.

Re: B.O.B.s
...And if there's a moment to grab an extra thing it would be my boots; given a third it would be my combat jacket with pockets permanently stuffed with;
Woolly hat
Gloves
Shemagh
Folding knife (Eka)
Button Compass
Small notebook and pens / ruler etc
Leather pouch containing;
Firesteel
1x box waterproof matches
Small piece of dry wood for a fire stick
3x Cotton wool balls
Yet more Para cord
And if I get another... it'll be my knife kit and pouch stuffed full of more of the same
and then theres my Finlay Foundry home assembled axe.
And that's it cos with any more I wouldn't be walking so much as crawling under the weight!
Unless of course I can bring the car in which case.......
