What socket set?

I have a fair few tools but the socket set case has disintegrated and I would like a nice(ish) set to take in the van. A good case would be nice. I am not a mechanic so only occasional use but probably used on stubborn stuck nuts and bolts. Noticed a half price set at Halfords but reviews suggest a poor case.

You are buying sockets not a case, buy the best sockets you can and put them in a box.

 

What's the budget?

snap on arent what they used to be sadly but still over priced imho. depends what u want them for, if your livelyhood depends on it, ie you are a mechanic/fitter then yes snap on or britool, if you just want a decent set for general purpose, i can vouch for halfords pro range. its good quality and a heck of a lot cheaper.
