I've got a 170 piece Halfords tool kit and it's excellent!  :y

I agree with TB on the spanners though as I can't think the ratchets would tolerate too much 'welly' and they are quite chunky which makes them awkward in restricted spaces.  ::)

Great value at £100.  :y :y :y

Does it come with a  decent plug spanner to fit the Omega?

Plug sockets M'lud.  :y

Lets put this into perspective.
Its a 170 various tools that you are going to use,at a cost of less than £1.00 per tool.
A ratchet from Halfords costs £19.99.
Simples. :)

Not ratchets, and you need to keep the receipt (or catch the staff on an off-day)

Guess what I've got coming for Christmas? ? ? ? ?  :y :y :y :y :y Yeeey!!!! Thank you mum!  :y :y


(and all I had to do was simply give her the laptop, find the link, input the details for her, and then show her the 'place order' button, tell her ''click that'' then leave the room.  So it's a total surprise! ::) ::)
