What about draper, king ****, sykes-pickavant, sealey, britool? I have no clue about any of these companis (I'm in the USA) but these brands do seem to be mentioned quite a bit by those in the UK.

I am an agricultural engineer, fixing anything from lawnmowers to cranes. I have mainly Snap On, teng, Britool and Gedore . If I Was starting out again and wanted a full set quick, I would consider the 1001 piece kit from teng, which comes in a rollcab ,middle box and topchest . They are a very good quality product, Readily available. They are about the same price as draper or sealey. With Draper , i think you have to watch what you buy , they do a few ranges and the quality varies between them. Gedore, Stahlwille and Elora are all excellent tools, but they are not so easy to buy off the shelf ,up here.
Halfords proffessional are a very good product , not bad price and have lifetime warranty.

I personally would avoid silverline tools. they are pretty cheap and you get what you pay for.
