as anybody got a halfords trade card that i could use? i need to torque my front hubs up to 190lbs and my torque wrench only goes up to 154lbs.
halford do a suitable wrench but its £79.99. apparently the trade card knocks it down to around £50

get one yourself there a HUGE thread about this on VZI under the offers section where loads of people have blagged a card including my self as i have worked in the motor trade (body shop paint prepper) plus they only take down companie names for the database and not to call or check..just say your self employed and your gonna buy loads of tools and equpiment from them and would much rather spend your money with them and a trade card is beneficial .. and they will cough one up for you i did this and saved s*it loads new battery for corsair with 3 year guarantee usually £70 swipe trade card £30 so use your noodle and go into a halfords make sure you get a thick/not bright advisor/spotty horny dikey teen and jobs a good 'un HTH

go into a halfords make sure you get a thick/not bright advisor/spotty horny dikey teen and jobs a good 'un Except a supervisor has to authorise it and for the most part they won't be thick spotty teens, but slightly brighter clear-skinned young adults But yeah, if you can prove you've spent a lot on car bits, 3 month's worth of invoices showing you've spent lots, that should do it.

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary.

What they said, blag yourself one. Parts - loads of discount Tools - good discount unless the item is on special offer, then discount is worked out on full price which often comes to more than the offer price. Battery example is a good one, Pair of wipers - £15.99 retail £4.21 with card! Well worth the effort of knocking up some faux headed paper in Word for

Remember the days when sex was safe and motorsport was dangerous. Vintage bling always attracts pussy.

They made me sign the last time I used mine and checked the signiture with the one on the back of the card.
They are quite easy to blag (as are all trade deals) if you look the part and can talk confidently.
