    I bought a Snap-on cordless impact gun off Ebay.
    Ideal for work.

    Subframe bolts are really not 'that' difficult to undo.
    Better off spending the money on some decent handtools imo.

    I bought one of the cheap 20 quid ones and I cant really fault it got every bolt off i have ever needed to without any fuss. Dont think it has the durability of the expensive ones but will do the job

    I just bought a cheap £20 12v one from Machine Mart....find I can't use it for certian jobs though cos of size, may invest in a battery at some point.
