No. I think this is the one you're after. Snap one up while they're a sensible price!

Go for it!!! If i can have a go at a HBV and oil and filter changes, i'm sure you can! Good luck!

I got the Halfords kit, good starting point, and lifetime guarantee.
I have had a few bits swapped, just take in broken item, leave with a new one :y
Worth adding a few adaptors to give extra flexability.
Go for it, this place will tell you how and give you the confidence, Its how I have learned, along with watching work done at any meets etc.
-
Sounds like a good starting point... would it give me all the kit to do a cam kit change??
have found the site invaluable in even giving me the motivation to consider doing anything... think I may even enjoy myself :o

Would that be the ‘3 foot scaffold pole’ type adaptor often used, but never mentioned when returning broken sockets.............. ;D ;D

I think the Halfords kit is excellent, the spanners are nice to hold and the parts are difficult to break, I personnally have 7 of them and keep one in each car and then spread the rest around the house at convenient locations.....
......ooohhhh......my head hurts....must have banged it badly on the way in.
It is in all seriousness a reasonable hobbiest set, it has its faults and some of the parts are pretty cheap and nasty but its a start.
