Tool kit isnt too bad. Socket stuff is small size, but you know.
Screw driver set i got is still going strong, not bad at all.

Another thing - 17th july
Reduced these down at work on the clearence bit -
2 Tonne Light Duty Trolley Jack - Sku 190381 (quote this number to check stock levels)
Been reduced down to £3.66
(Staff discount makes them £2.92 )
I know its Wickes own brand, and its only 2 tonne and 'light weight' but you know, for those interested could be okay.

Too slow my 3 most local stores are sold out.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

I've just been to Wickes near me, picked up a 2 tonne bottle jack for £2.44, and 2 tonne axle stands for £1.71!
They were the last ones on the shelf as well, couldn't believe my luck!

"I saw this jack having combed the internet and local stores, and had to do a double take at the price..! So I took what I thought was a chance and ordered 2. They arrived next day and are fantastic, never mind for the price, they look exactly the same as those I was looking at elsewhere (at £29-£35). The quality was the same. I have a little working knowledge of workshop equipment as I am a former mechanic. For the cost I can not fault this product."
Sold them to me tbh
