Nice video mate, I might of taken a little more effort at showing people where to look for the level markers on the oil, brake fluid and such like and also the same with checking lights. Also you say its always nice to check in the bay alot of modern cars don't have a dipstick at all so you just can't.
I can check over a work car in 10 mins which includes checking extra lights, searching the entirety of the inside and making sure all the damage is recorded correctly in the book so lights, tyres and fluids really shouldn't take anyone more than that.
As for your boot box I have a little more in mine, in addition to yours I have; A bigger bottle of water, a pack of fake mars bars from tesco (although value cookies also good and present), aerosol tyre repairs (you don't want to be switching to a spare in the freezing cold and dark), fuses, a few basic tools, spare bottle of screen wash, snap on lamp (battery powered), emergency triangle, and importantly a first aid kit.
When it looks really cold my snow shovel, wellies, thick waterproof high vis, sleeping bag, inflatable sledge, solid fuel stove and brew kit go in the boot too
