Some good deals in my opinion although I am sure that people will point out some better options on certain items. I bought some of the screenwash (ready to be told it's 1:200 concentration at Halfords for the same price ). I got a first aid kit for £4.99 and it's got so much stuff in I am amazed, will be good for my new flat and my car though.

Extinguisher is obviously very cheap.

Indeed it is. Not that it will ever put a fire out but might drop a small fire down long enough to get everyone out the car. Remember not to breathe in the powder unless you're feeling constipated.

bargain axle stands!

Well this is my problem with them, a 1 kg extinguisher is useless on a car fire and should come with a major health warning. I do have that exact model though (and it's still fine after 16 months) but it's a total false security. It would be of use against an internal fire such as a dropped cigarette.

dont get the Fire Extinguisher, they had them before, when i went a few days after the offer started there was loads left with broken handles

How does the handle break?

using tiny calipers, pads and discs.

Oh

I can't imagine it breaking unless you hit it against something, I mean you wouldn't pull the pin out to break it unless you were using it anyway. Maybe they had a fire in Lidl

Car mats for a fiver, cant go wrong at that price.

Unless they don't fit... then you've just wasted a fiver?

I got some for my sister last year when I gave her my Brava and they fitted in that pretty well out of memory, they are good basic mats. She still has them a year on but they are not wearing as well as my more expensive mats.

Has she got mat envy?

cheers, i need some car mats for the rs

I just called her to ask if they are any good, she replied in two ways:


What mats? I don't have mats?
You bought me mats? Aww...

i got a load of them cleaning things from lidl before and they were pretty good., cant go wrong with that price.,

Don't get generic mats, pop into the dealer and get proper car specific ones, just fitted a set to my GF Fabia last week, obviously perfect fit, mat locator thingies, logo embrioreded etc etc £23!
