Talking to a mate in the pub last night and he reckoned that these
drill/drivers are excellent. Bit worse for wear when I got home but
seem to remember him saying that it comes with a lifetime parts and
labour warranty and a free service every year (note that I don't
know if that's available everywhere or is just a special offer local
to the place he bought his from - which is not from the place linked
to).

Anyway, what do the panel think?

I bought the Makita £99.99 kit from Screwfix about a year ago, and
have been well pleased with it for general diy and handyman work.
Although the batteries are a bit low in capacity, with 3 of them
supplied in the kit I've never been caught out. Sometimes struggles a
bit in hard bricks or concrete, but then I just drill a 4mm pilot then
open it out to whatever.

Highly recommended.

Went and got it today
