Yeah, I know, cheap tools ... but the sockets & screwdrivers are chrome vanadium which is a good.

That could be an ideal starter kit for 11year old Jr whos has just realised "Dads car tools" can be used for swopping BMX bike bits with mates. Got to teach him about £hourly charges and parts costs/profits next.

Thanks for the heads up.

Just ordered one, may be good maybe not but worth a try.

A good starting point as you can replace the bits that break get worn out or lost with higher quality ones that way you are not paying silly money for tools that you will rarely use e.g. 1 1/4" sockets or the like.

Thats exactly the set I have and is great, just the middle sized rachet that wore out, I like the way everything has its place so easy to tidy up every night and know whats missing. Screwdrivers are rubbish but everything else seemed ok

Bargain

Ditto. Norfolk Luego bought me one mainly for the tool box for my birthday last year. So far, nothings broken, rounded or chewed up. The screwdriver heads are a bit 'cheese' but otherwise, thoroughly reccomended.

It was basically all the tools i needed to go from CVH to Zetec last winter.

Its no snap-on, but a big thumbs up from me.

For that price I might get one to go up at my container for all those 'bugger, I forgot to bring XYZ' moments.
