I need a reliable drill for spinning winches, ie, we put a hook in the
chuck, slot that into the winch and spin it... It beats hand winding!

If 240V is OK, then look for a "slow drill", as used by plasterers for
mixing, or by timber framers for drilling large holes. Wickes sell one
for 99 quid that's cheap, but uninspiring to handle. The one that the
framers use because it doesn't die is the Makita (not cheap,
Axminster have them).

For cordless, try the red Milwaukee stuff (new to the UK, Isaac Lord
have them). Read last month's Fine Woodworking mag for a multi-review
on good cordless drills and why they differ.
