SOG have a bit of an Internet rep for poor QC, so it's not impossible.
I'm not sure price alone is an indicator as US pricing is cheaper.
For me the big things are:
size
bit holder
pillars
glasses screwdriver
Imo the Juice is a great size, although mine is the chunky one with all the tools so the weight takes it to the point that you have to ask the question "why not a full sized one" (the answer is mine was gifted then twice warranty replaced by Leatherman). The SOG PowerPint is that sort of size, but a bit smaller.
I definitely would not pay £50 for it though. The tools are simply not good enough.
Victorinox Swiss Tool Spirit XC Plus would be the ideal for the car/motorbike I guess. But that's quite pricey, so this plus the right ¼" bits seems like a reasonable compromise.
Highlighting 'twice warranty replaced' - Leatherman have the best warranty replacement policy I have ever come across. Bought something on eBay slightly nicked in the blade, posted it in with my return address on a slip of paper, got a new one back no questions asked.
When I image searched this came up
