This is a sweet ratchet, probably late 70s vintage, which I rebuilt and lubed 2 years ago with a kit from Snap On. Then it when off to a voc school with my son where it had light use, as mechanics was a small part of the program. It still seems smooth (for a 20 toother) and clean. He's upgraded, and I've about 6, 3/8" ratchets so this one's available.
It has an honest working history with scuffs in the usual places, slight finish wear and a couple of light dings.

McLaren P1 gets 903bhp
Wed, 20 Feb 2013McLaren has revealed that their new supercar – the McLaren P1 – will deliver 903bhp and have emissions below 200g/km. The McLaren P1 will get 727bhp from its 3.8 litre V8 with an additional 176bhp coming from an electric motor for a combined power delivery of 903bhp, with the V8 contributing 531lb/ft of torque and the electric motor an instant 192lb/ft for a combined torque of 664lb/ft at 4000rpm. The boost from the electric motor is instantly available at the flick of a button on the steering wheel – McLaren call it Instant Power Assist System (IPAS) – which instantly throws more additional power to aid the McLaren’s V8 than a pair of Fiestas can manage.

Halfords rapped by advertising watchdog
Wed, 13 Nov 2013HALFORDS has been told to remove "misleading" pricing from its website after overstating savings on certain products. The car and bike accessories retailer listed two car radios in July, claiming savings of £20 on each one. But a complainant noted that the radios had only just been released, and challenged whether the savings claims could therefore be substantiated.
