small compressor??

[johnakay]

we're buying my two lads a compressor each for xmas.
there quite a few cheapy ones on ebay.
one son not bothered about a 25 ltr but rather have a small one.
the other would find the 25 ltr useful as hes a proper DIY and like to work on his car.
there are few air tools which will be handy for him.
now the question is my youngest just want a pump to pump his car tyres up.
hes had a couple and so have I they dont seem to last or take for ever to pump up.
what you guys recommend in a small compressor .
they all seem to be around the same price regardless of how many litres.
cant find much info on this wolf one..
are they good long term?

For pumping up tyres, I have a T Max and it will blow up a landy tyre from flat no bother!

he doesnt know yet nor does he know hes getting a compressor.
more than likely he probably wont bother with air tools as he got a few electric tools which we bought for him over the years and not cheap rubbish.
the T-MAX Heavy Duty 12V Portable Air Compressor looking good from the video I've been watching.
these more than like is what we'll get for both of the lads.
anyway thanks for the replies.
oh and bright spark if we had a shed as big as your yes you could fit our 3 garages into your shed and still have enough room for more.lol

if its just for pumping tyres up (just a few psi rather than from flat), I'd just use a foot pump, its quicker than unwinding and winding up the hose from my mains compressor.......

...seeing the title of this though, I've also got and airbrush compressor, they cut off at 50psi, so I could use that for pumping car tyres up too.
