Thread: Halfords 1/2 price socket sets offer

    RE: Halfords 1/2 price socket sets offer

    Have a 120 piece over 10 years now, still no issues and I'd say I've used 90% of the kit from maintaining mtb's and working on the cars (and one lawnmower)

    My girlfriend bought me the 170 piece kit for my birthday last year when the half price sale was on (the benefit of dropping hints )
    So far the quality has been as good as any Snap-on or Teng tool, from my experience, with the only thing breaking being the philips head socket that snapped; my own fault as screw had rusted itself solid but they replaced the socket anyway.

    That's the main advantage really, if you only ever have a day or two to do a job on the car but end up breaking something the likelihood is that there will be a halfords nearby where it can be replaced. Snap-on, Teng etc. could be days or weeks.

    have 3 of the halfords sets as they're so handy to have.

    last one i bought was the 170 piece set in the north half price at £125 then reduced more with the trade card which was even better!

    couldn't recommend them enough

    Has anybody used the vortex system sockets?
    They're supposed to be a lot lower profile than standard ratchets, due to be hollow with the socket sliding into them, but are they worth it?

    I haven't come across anything yet so far on the E36 that has been too difficult to get at, but after tearing the hands off myself on a diesel accord at the weekend a low profile ratchet might be worth considering.
