These sets of tools at these prices will not be of the best quality.Be prepared to replace items that wear or break with good quality items as and when.You wont do your best work with tools that do not perform.

Sockets, spanners, torque wrench buy the best you can afford. Mid range stuff like Draper, Britool & Sykes normally good.
Items you hardly use I'd buy cheap & replace when broken like tadge44 said.

Or try and find second hand snap on stuff....and blag replacements under their lifetime guarantees! *wink*

THe halfrauds pro range is what I use, and they have some good deals on at the moment, the quality is really up there as well.

Seally do some starter sets that arent too bad money, half decent quality should get you on your feet again! :)

the clark one is good but if you can reach out abit more get the pro series, halfords pro is good but if somthing breaks and you want it changed it will take ages and ages. halfords pro torque wrenches are quite good for the price i think i got mine for only £40
