I think there is a socket set that youre all over looking......

You can now get a decent Blue Point Socket set direct from a Snap On dealer for the same price if not less than a Halfords set and IMO its better quality!!

Ive bought Snap On stuff for years now and when I sneered about the Blue Point stuff to my dealer he told me that the Blue Point stuff was in fact very good!!

from memory i think the complete 1/4 drive Blue Point socket set is about £65 which i think is superb value!!

then obviously its a bit more for the 3/8 or 1/2 drive sets or you can get an entire 1/4 - 1/2 set.
