Just been to halfords, and picked up a set of 25 professional Spanners from 6mm to 32mm for £50 quid...

£2 quid a spanner for this quality...smile can't be bad

I bought a set of through ratchets from halfords. Kept for six months then used one which immediately locked up and wouldn't turn left or right.
Probably operator errorhehe


Well I've been using halfords professional stuff for years.... Have had a couple of failures (due to abuse) and never had an issue getting a broken item replaced under their lifetime guarantee....

And no matter what you think £2 per item for this kit is good value.... Especially as it includes most inbetween sizes that many TVR's use....

Most of the stuff I've seen at car shows is cheap crap, try taking a broken spanner back to an empty field 2 years on, on a Sunday afternoon.

I thought it was worth a heads up, due to the set having 15mm, 16"" 18mm and a few other inbbetween sizes, that are often missing from standard sets...smile
A fair few TVR fasteners use these..smile
