I got one too not relly usedit much yet just a headlight off and on again but alot of kit for a hundred quid

 

that looks well tasty . worth a 30 mile drive ??

 

make sure you keep the receipt in a safe place as they are getting a bit funny about replacing stuff under the lifetime warranty. Think its because so much of their stuff is being sold on ebay these days.

I had an awkard time trying to get a torx bit swapped a few weeks ago. Thing was the lad i was talking to when i was trying to get it swapped was the one that sold it to me 2 days before. (i had gone straight from work so not had chance to get my receipt. luckily they changed it for me.)

 

does any one know how much this is with a trade card??

 

95 but they have been doing 10% online recently at weekends and you can collect locally...

 

is a top kiyreally good kits, i've had this one for 6 years and apart from one star bit i overloaded its never let me down.

the ratchets are really good too, the are really fine so if you're in a tight spot they are very handy.

just got my sister to pick up one of these for me too

 

I'm very happy with mine, except today I noticed two of the sockets were repeats or wrong. I dropped by Halfords and they sorted it out without any fuss.

Had a quick chat with the guy too, and he told me they are actually made by Snap-On, but just have the Halfords stamp on. Pretty fit ay.

 

snap on?-i'd take that with a pinch of salt.
good set but worth buying drive size converters and some extension bars for small ratchet

 

Snap-On is nonsense, although I have heard repeatedly that Teng make some parts and Brit-tool others.

Regardless, hard to beat a lifetime warranty from somewhere thats open Sundays. Break a tool, go swap it. Job done.

 

I'd like the Halfords set.
Rumour has it they're getting a wee bit more particular about broken part Returns though, due to the number of kits being sold / traded on forums & eBay.
Keep your receipt in a small ziplock bag in your car

 

i got one of these sets last week, definately a bargain. Always best to keep ur reciept tho.. Halfords as with all big companies will always try getting out of a guarantee if it saves them money and keeping the reciept covers ur back.

 

snap on my ass, but some of their kit was made by SP a while back,, sykes pickvant

 

had my halfords 150pc set for a fiew years now. ive never broken any of their tools and its used almost daily. the case has seen better days tho. one clip is missing and the back hinge has started to split

 

My only gripe is it's a seperate case with the sockets in. I've just bought a big tool box so it's a nuisance to keep them together.

Could do with some of the Halfords socket rails to stick them on?

 

thinking of thisone myself, just a spare for home as i'm getting sick of carting stuff from work, random sockets ect

this set up looks well orginised

99.99 in the trade news letter

 

yes sykes pickavant,

 

u won't be dissapointed mate.

we use snap on tools where i work and the halfords ratchets have just as fine adjustments on them. not your usual cheap 90 degree turn to one click type crap.
