I want a cheap set to leave in the car, anyone recommend a set?
why would you leave cable cutters in the car
and on that note a pair of high leverarge side cutters from toolstop does the job for me
Superstar. Nuff said.
These:

Are the best cable cutters I've ever had- way better than my Parks. So not totally bargain-basement, but cheap enough, and brilliant.
There's cheaper ones that look very much the same, but no guarantee that they will be unfortunately. As low as £8.
The Superstar Pro one is not bad at all- again, better than my Parks, though they did wear out a little fast for my taste, I like tools to last forever. That said, they did good service and strung up a load of bikes, more use than most people will ask of a tool in a decade I reckon. So definately Good Enough. The crimper is poor but the wee pokey thing on the side is genius, reopens squashed cable outers like a baws.
Got mine from screwfit. Not perfect but sharp enough cost me about a tenner

Well, if you keep spare cables in the car, then something to cut them with is nice.
