New just out. In that price range. Ryobi CMD-1442 with 2 speed
gearbox,
3
batteries, one hour charger and aluminium case. £85 +VAT on offer. V
nice
drill. www.protrade.co.uk


Ryobi stuff ain't too bad in general, but I have to say I really don't
like their drills. A friend of mine has the 18V combi, and I've spent
a
fair few hours using it. Battery life is very poor for the price
range,
and the torque is miserable.

Thanks for the review! Doesn't sound that impressive.

A different drill to the new model.

Wickes have a drill in this price range. A grey rebadged Kress or Germany.
