Hi,
since I trust my fellow TVR owners, I'd like to ask if anyone has bought a small-ish wheeled tool chest in the past few years that they would recommend?
I am looking for a decent quality item of ~£500 ish: roller bearing drawers and decent finish, etc.
In an ideal world British made, but European fine. I know I probably can't afford SnapOn quality, but I am not definitely not interested in far eastern sweat shop rubbish.

Appreciate your recommendations.

I picked up a 5-drawer roller bearing wheeled base unit from Halfords and got a free 7-drawer roller bearing top box (both the "Pro" range), came in at about £200 or thereabouts. Very happy with it.

Cotco usually have some good ones, they used to do really nice stainless but last time it was mild steel, but still very good quality.

Best value / construction is Machine Marts pro hd Blueline range. excellent quality, roller bearing drawers, nice finish available in red, black, yellow or blue. I bought a roller Cabinet (2 big and 5 smaller drawers) and a top box for about the £500 mark. pic below.
