An OBD scanner

A decent flashlight

A mini screwdriver set

A multimeter

An outlet polarity tester

These immediately come to mind.

If you're going to have a multimeter or do anything around electricity I'd say a non contact voltage sensor otherwise known as a "death" or "idiot" stick.

Im a mechanic and own all ofnthese apart from the obd scanner, but my personal land cruiser produces flash codes along with my motorbikes.

But this is certainly a great list

You are a mechanic and don't own an obd scanner.
