Halfords Advanced Socket set
Anyone wanting to get a good starter set, then this looks to be a good deal
£90 http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/half...00-now-2120685 All my sockets are Halfords & I'm plenty happy with it. Snap On it isn't but the Advanced range is plenty good enough for the home mechanic

Re: Halfords Advanced Socket set
Confession time.
I have a 32 mm socket and 24 mm combi spanner in my box at work. They are fine.

Re: Halfords Advanced Socket set
Just watch the hinges on the socket set. My 170 piece one has broke on the hinges

Yes, the boxes aren't the best

Re: Halfords Advanced Socket set
Bloody good value tools, in my opinion. I'd have no worries about buying them.

And if you are after cheap tools, avoid anything branded Silverline...
