i asssume you mean as in accurrate bolt tightening

if so and you dont feel confident enough for the samll stuff then you will really need 2

1 to do the smaller bolts/nuts

1 to do the bigger stuff...

you can usually buy a pair for a good price

for the clio you will need at least 200nm for stuff like driveshaft nuts etc

I've had a Norbar for past 5years, and have been really pleased -but broke it last month

The Halfords pro ones are reasonable price but we checked one at work and it was 11% out!

[Foxspeed]

usual places really -

ebay

halfords

machine mart

just look for any offers

if its diy then dont go to overboard - some professional ones are quite expensive

I got this one a while back:

Seems pretty solid, no idea how accurate it is but it serves its purpose.

i use tengtools ones. Mainly due to it being one of the few that came with calibration certifications and conforms to BS6703/88.

i got mine from http://www.ffx.co.uk (very good service and spoke for guidance on the phone with them and they were very, very helpful. Delivery was also very fast) and also bought a smaller one as well and teng tools high impact socket set. Quality is very good imo.
