Just changed jobs and on my last day my colleagues had a whip-round.
Knowing that I'm into cars, very generously got me a £70 Halfords Voucher for bits and bobs.

So... I have jack, socket set, big torque wrench, impact driver, axel stands, drill already...

Thinking of a small toolkit for Kit car emergencies?
Ratchet ring spanner set?
Maybe a toolchest - they seem expensive though.

What would you get??

If halfords stock them get a set of irwin bolt grips, one of the greatest tools out there. I've not yet come across a rounded bolt I wasn't able to get out! They are basically sockets with tapered and fluted internals which literally bite into a rounded nut.

Not cheap at £35ish, but massively worth it.

The Halfords Professional ratchet ring spanners are really very good to be honest
