Rods2:
You can reduce the Aldi air compressor to £59.99 + £3.95 in the Aldi online shop. When buying online select voucher code option on the basket and type COMPRESSOR20

Ive been resisting the temptation to buy one for years, as I don't really have room for one and I don't really need one.
This has got me thinking again though..... :-\ :D

I've had a compressor for a while ,about the same size as aldi item
I love just being able to pump up a tyre in seconds rather than spending 5 mins watching a crappy cig lighter pump dance about the floor screaming .
It also gives the ability to spray paint, shutlz ,raptor,chain oil, fence stain
Just picked up a windy gun from lidl for £20 in a blow moulded case ,with sockets etc .
I think aldi have one for £15  :o ok it may not last it's 3 year warranty period ,but if it removes a few nuts that have been done stupid tight by a trained professional wheel fitter or the likes, £15 or £20 is peanuts 
battery tools have come along way , i'm still glad i have a compressor

Those 1/2" guns working off a small compressor are less effective than a medium length breaker bar. Not to mention taking a lot longer to do the job in a really noisy way. The only thing I now use a compressor for is spraying; grinders, drills, sanders etc are much better when electric. I have a cordless impact wrench, but use it to save effort on large bolts(suspension for example) rather than actually loosening them.

Thanks for the information Nick W  :y
I only just got the windy gun, not tried it
compressor is wolf air 50L ,8 bar
if windy gun will undo wishbones etc then good enough for what i paid
I do need to invest in a decent long breaker bar
I have a snap on one about 2 foot long but I extend it  :-[ with tube
the extending wheel brace I snapped off the !/2" square  :(
