just got the charger from our Oswestry Lidl - they didn't have the other bits, but they did have the 1kg powder extinguisher, so got that too. Thanks for the heads up on this offer!

Don't spend to much guys, you know how us boys are with car gadgets I can go in for one item then end up with about half a dozen, spanner, drill bits, metal spray paint which is good I must say, black is great for the coolant tanks

And don’t forget, some of the things Aldi sell have a three year warranty.Like Artic I have been buying a lot of car related things, tools, from Aldi and they have all been ok. Except the cheap carpets for cars. Rubbish.my heel had gone through the mat in a month.

I've had one of the chargers for nigh on 4 years now - I leave my caravan battery connected to it from September through 'til April and it keeps it in top condition. The battery level indicator is pretty good too - it seems to be accurate when compared to a multimeter on the same battery.

Just went this morning to the local Lidl for a couple of the taller squarer boot bags but all gone, and no option to purchase online (Aldi do for some items).

Bah! Have to be quicker next time.
