MB300D81,
I am about 500 miles (800km) south west from you. I have at times been able to borrow tools like that from merc mechs in the local area. I would have thought there would be an independent place some where near you. The local tafe has lots of good tools as well. Its amazing what a slab of beer will get you!!
