What tyres are on it? If they're the 'run flat' type then even with a puncture you can drive to a tyre centre to get it fixed. If they're not then you have every justification to be nervous!

You dont get a spare wheel these days on newer cars, it was highlighted on Watchdog just the other day. Your run flat types will have to be fixed if you have a flat, using the kit you should have in your boot.
