I've got the socket set, it is good quality and compact.
2 different set, albeit very similar
"You can fit the bits straight into the ratchet for getting into tight spaces, or fit them to the bit holder which locks them in securely by lifting up the orange part."

That one has a ton more sockets with it.
Worth the extra.

Bahco make good tools, not like the cheap ones that might as well be made of cheese

I've got this set. Amazing quality. I've tried Stanley FatMax, draper expert etc.. But my favourites are Bacho and Halfords advanced.

I'd say the more expensive one is the better one, as more socket pieces, even if its 1 "piece" less. Depends on your intended use I guess

Definitely agree the one at £17.20 is better value.

Perhaps we are missing the point between the two socket sets. This one is quite specialist. You will note that the bits pass through the ratchet wrench to give a very low profile when trying to get in very tight spaces. There is an adapter to put the sockets on. Ideal for those very tight engine bays where you need fingers the size of a baby and clearance was plainly not thought of when the completed engine was lifted into place in the factory....
If you need a socket set this is not the best.
If you need (or want) a specialist narrow thin drive - then it is.
You can see how small it is in this YouTube video.Bahco video

Good point. I had a car once where I had to remove the right hand side engine mount and raise the engine so I could undo the cam chain adjuster. I may have got in with one of those. All Ford need to have done was put an inspection hole in the inner wing for access but then cars aren't really designed by technicians are they. Only issue I have is with quarter drive on car engines just doesn't seem beefy enough to me.
