Thinking it is time to buy some power tools. Looking to get a drill, angle grinder and not sure what else.

Looked at the dremel... it's a bit pricey for right now. Still looking for a nice led light and that jump start thing (not sure what it is).

To me a jump starter isn't essential for the garage. I had one but never used it and the battery died in it. As long as you can keep the battery charged (through driving or a trickle charger) you should be ok.

Always found small magnet backed led lights invaluable

Nope, it was restored 2 years ago so still fresh. I had play in steering column
bushes and my indicator tell tales don't work( Its a pcb issue not sure how to fix. As long as the tester can hear the relay clicking then it'll pass.. Same last year. :-)

I got to drive my Mini for the first time in five years (my fault). It was epic. Now to sort out all the bugs...

Never mind the bugs it's the rattler under the rear seat or hobo spider behind the dash you have to worry about!
Congratulations on keeping another Mini alive :-)

It was a 1968 Car I used to look after...I thought it was hard and a bit high. Amazing
2 advantages; lowers the centre of gravity and stops the MOT man prodding holes with a screw driver
