I had one from halfords BUT its stopped showing the pressure... dont want to spend silly money but anyone recommend any good tyre pumps ?

 

Michelin Twin barrel from Halfords. Accurate and works quickly/

A bargain at £20 http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...egoryId_165648

 

will this go up to 45psi ok ? i need to do the landrover tyres too , did not think about an old school manual pump !

 

Tom - the gauge on this unit scales up to 100 psi. Not sure it will go that far although it's certainly seems man enough to get past the half way mark.
The other alternative is to continue using your electric model and use a separate manual gauge for about 1/4 of the price of a new pump.

 

I've got this one (lazy sod) works a treat, pumps to 50+ to do my bicycle tyres.

The Michelin one is good I have one too, the gauge actually reads accurately too according to the group test that was done. Get one in.
