Try to get hold of a full workshop manual n parts list. I think there are threads for this elsewhere. Check out Halfords n Aldi right now for good tools offers. You need good basics:

- metric spanner set

- half n quarter in driver socket set

- long half inch socket pinch bar (for leverage on those bloody rusty nuts n bolts.

- a 27mm socket to un do yet wheel nuts

- an engineering hammer

- pliers

- full set screwdrivers

There's loads of other tools the list endless. Get tools as you need them. A hillwalking head torch a cheap must. And finally a good 2/3 ton jack n axle stands. Hey it's Dear Santa time .

- impact screwdrivers

Nice list! Can I try adding something which isn't all that fashionable and which actually even grates slightly with me? Don't forget to check out Halfrauds! Their Professional range is guaranteed for life and although it's not Snap On it's actually pretty good. Not only that, but if you are patient that stuff is often on 1/2 price offer which makes pretty decent quality kit quite affordable.

Thanks John, you just wrote my Christmas list for me

Have to say that I but lots of my tools from Lidl, I like their electrical stuff and it seems to last. Spanners is what I am lacking, and sockets, I bought cheap spanners from ebay, I know I shouldn't have gone for the cheap ones now! I got imperial because I presumed that my Landy being old would need imperial.

Anyway, I took the Landy across my muddy field today and I have to say it is one of the best feelings in the world! The animals are going to appreciate that I can get the food and water there now, I am appreciating not having to carry it across the first field

I love my Landy!

Lump hammers can be extremely useful and do not take up much space in your toolbox
