 Excellent Value! March 30, 2008
Today is a Sunday and I just received this item which has instantly made me give it a 5/5 rating. I mean delivery on a Sunday? Brilliant! Wish more people would deliver on Sundays!
Delivery aside the tools themselves are not obviously the best quality you'll ever buy but the selection is excellent. If you need a bit of everything then these kits are perfect and they will do 95% of all the jobs a standard DIY home/car enthusiast will need to do.
All in all very very pleased.
 Very handy but does have rough edges (sometimes literally) May 23, 2007

Unfortunately the price has gone up a bit but it is still cheap for all the different tools, and it is handy to have them in one box.
I have used this over the last year to do a number of jobs on my car (and on other things for that matter) and really have found it indispensible.
However there are down sides.
For a start for many jobs you will need other tools (you can see the draper catalogue at www.draper.co.uk for what is included in this kit). You will probably need a bigger wrench, as well as larger socket sizes and larger spanners. Also, you should have a torque wrench (or two/three for different torque ranges) for doing work on a car, so that you have more chance of not over/under tightening bolts when butting them back on. TX star bits and sockets might well be needed too depending on your type of car.
I have not used a 100 mechanic's toolkit but I would be horrified if you could not tell the difference with this one as one of the other reviewers suggested. This kit is useable but is not high quality.
The sockets have a chrome plating which comes off easily and can be sharp (it might have been better if they had left out the plating and allowed you to take your own measures to protect against rust). One of my extension bars gets stuck in sockets (one of it's fittings is slightly too large). The allen keys have an annoying habit of falling out of their holder in the plastic box when you close the box.
I am speculating now but the socket sizing is probably not as exact as more expensive ones so you should take extra care not to round nuts on your car.
Tip: I put a length of hosepipe over the bare metal of the handle of the wrench to make it more comfortable. A normal diameter garden hose was difficult to slide on but is a good fit once on, and the wrench still fits in the plastic box.

I just got this kit not long ago for working on my bike as I have virtually no other tools. I could not be more happy with this. I showed it to a friend of mine who has many years of experience with fixing bikes and asked him how much he thought it was and his guess was 100. Go buy one if you want to start maintaining your car/bike
Great Value January 24, 2005
