Yeah, she has bought me an ally jack, money toward my Snap-On roll cab and loads of other bits over the years. Rather she buy something I will use rather than some random useless present.

I got mine on a xmas offer last year off the snapon fella up tbe road, they were selling them £200 cheeper and i got £250 trade in on my old roll cab (that i found on a tip) so i was made up with that and its wide enough for my 36" pry bar but it is getting rather full and im building up to ask her if i can trade this one in for a bigger one lol

Hmm my other half is odd, my Christmas present to her is a 100amp altenator for her Vectra GSI project, pity I have to fit the fooking thing aswell !

Last year she got me vouchers for the snap-on van and sorted out the guy to come to my house with the snapon van lol

I think my wife loves the kid in me, 2 years she bought me Lego ( I'm 34 lol ) and a power kit so I could make it fully remote control

my mrs doesn't get me anything car related these days

when we first went out, she would sneak into a certain large brand car accessory outlet & buy those awful dodgy gift sets...

then it progressed onto clarkson videos.... and eventually clarkson paperback books...finally the kids got me some stig stuff, but i've been tat free for about 4 years.

Never asked for parts, that's just a waste. But have asked for specific tools, but wound up with the cash instead to buy exactly what I wanted instead.

The mrs has bought me work tools before but never for the nova. But tbh you only need a 10mm,13mm and a screwdriver for the nova lol so I have everything!

Our lass would always rather spend money on something I really want, cos then she knows I'll appreciate it. Im not bothered for surprises

I'd love to be able to buy Jack car things for the Celica or Nova or Cav but I have no idea what I'd be looking for and I know he would probably want something different to what I had bought him...

Same goes for gadgets, camera stuff and Lego lol
