Too many to choose from,

Ideally looking for a combined 240V/12V unit, but will suffer a 12V only if they're recommended...

Anyone got any of these http://www.motocare.co.uk/home/maintenance/tyre-pu...

or anyone ever bought one of these?: http://www.set8.net/power-tools/workshop/234578-ju...

I have one of the Silverline models (2nd link). Great jump pack (though short leads) but the compressor packed up after a year or so.

I now have one of these http://www.motocare.co.uk/home/ring-rac630-digital.... It's great to have a pre-set value possible; just switch it on and do something else until it stops.

Yes, also the RAC630 - used one for just over a year without any problems (though note that it is 12V only).

Another RAC630 owner here, it replaced an older one I had and I was really pleased with how quickly it could do it's job compared to others I've used.

Shop around, there are usually some bargains to be had - Amazon have them for £20 at the moment I think.

Tyreman 12v pump from Wilkinsons has performed well for the last couple of years. £7.99 IIRC.
