My cheapo SDS drill doesn't have long to go (brushes don't last and
it's hardly worth the investment to buy new ones), so I've decided to
get a new one.
Although they're incredibly useful, it's not that often that I have to
get it out so it's not easily to justify (/ask Father Christmas for) a
top of the range one. I had my eye on the De Walt from Screwfix
(http://www.screwfix.com/prods/30228/...Drills/DeWalt-


Go for the DeWalt one, they are brilliant and you will not want for a
better drill.
I have exactly the same one as in the Screwfix link and I can honestly say
that it is easily the best bit of kit I've ever bought.
This drill will not fall apart, and you can get ALL SPARE PARTS for it.
The vary speed function is really useful.
But don't expect to break 6" concrete with it though.

I have had the DeWalt. It took 6 years of constant abuse to break it. I was
so pleased with it I bought another. The DeWalt actually has more hammer
power than the B&D even though the motor uses less power.
