I agree that snap-on are the best tools available but what I bought today would have cost about 7x the price.

i take it you have to be a company to have a trade card
or work in the motor industry
make a false invoice or letterhead. was told today that they are tightening the rules though and all companies must have a vat registration number to get a trade card.
That would be a tricky one as it would discrimnate against small traders who decide against registering for VAT or who are below the threshold!!

well, find me a company in the motor industry that has an annual turnover less than £60k
99% of companies that supply to the trade want a vat registration number for a trade account
