believe it or not Halfords proffesional - big set for £99 when I purchased and excellent quality kit (it survived two seasons of race team use so far without any breakages or problems.).

As said above 'Halfords Pro' range stand up quite well to abuse.
Use quite a few from the range to take these apart

Did I mention I get huge discounts off Draper trade prices?
Go to the CROMWELL TOOLS website and lok at the YAMAMOTO range of kit. It's good gear.

 did a search for yamamoto on their website and came up with nothing?
how do you get huge discounts on draper tools by the way? are
they a decent make? because they used to be when i was at college , but these days i've had a few draper bits and bobs that were rubbish.

I never rated Draper and then bought (5 yrs ago) a 3/8" drive socket set - 100 odd pieces - very impressed - thin walls to the sockets, Hex sockets well as multipoint plus deep ones - Thing is it's American made and looks quality compared with lot of other draper stuff so I guess it can be tricky to recommend ...
