Garage set up. Must have tool sets.

Where's the link with the ebay sale of zillions of snap-on tools?

In addition to the halfords kit, get some ring spanners. 8 - 20mm for starters. Also a set of maul grips, long nose pliers, a small flat bladed screwdriver, torque wrench, breaker bar, a cheap little multimeter, a wire brush, and a code reader. You could go on and on but I think these are pretty much essential in addition to that halfords kit to get you started. Can get everything for under a oner if your lucky.   Oh yeah and obviously trolley jack and axle stands as well!  So maybe £150

no mention of superglue    

halfords sell bout the best sets, i think machine mart do quite good sets aswell

Take a trip to costco, they have insanely priced air compressors and shït loads of good quality, cheap tools.

these sets are perfect starters add a set of screwdrivers, and then just add bits as and when you need them, ive had halfords sockets in my box at wotk for bout 8 years now and they're surprisingly good qaulity, for example been using my 21mm socket on my impact gun for 8 yrs and it only cracked yesterday

If it helps, and you need somewhere to store all the tools....

Halfords have a deal on their rolling cabs and chests at the moment. Buy a 5 drawer professional cab and you get a 7 drawer chest free. They are made in the same factory as the snap on ones so quality is respectable.

I'd give it 9/10
Ive had mine for 2 years, the only thing that has broken is the 3/8 ratchet
