That's one hell of a collection, my old boss spent £2k on just a toolbox, nearly everything in the tool box was snap on, easy be about £10k worth, you can go on the snap on van for 5mins and spend £500 easy on about 3 things easy

not a 'normal' size you need to buy one additionally, think its the fitment for the caliper slider bolts on the corsa

Yeah 7mm does corsa callipers, Beemer csllipers, and vdub struts, a mate done the best mod, 19mm deep socket, welded a 19mm ring spanner on bottom of socket, put Allen key through the hole on socket and strut tops come loose, swan necks ain't usually deep enough

I done a similar thing before but used vice grips on the socket. Saves ruining a socket and a spanner.

He bought a workshop, complete with tools and machinery. Impossible scenario to happen so it's deffo dodgy.

I would suspect most of that is stolen - Its not uncommon for snap on dealer vans and lock ups being broken into and having everything taken..
The snap on man at my old place had this happen to him - he was near enough in tears when he eventually came in
