Default Dilog 9083P elec installation tester - too good to be true?

Looking for a multifunction tester so I can sign up to a Competent Person
scheme under Prat P, the front runners seem to be Fluke 1652 and Megger
1552 at a bit under £500 + VAT, or ... there's this Dilog for under £400
all up, calibrated and everything - and a freebie thrown in!

Sounds too good to be true - am I mmissing something?
Dilog's wibble says
http://dilog.co.uk/home/index.php?op...5&Item id=170
* Continuity test with auto Null facility to zero out lead resistance
* RCD testing - tripping time, tripping current, ramp current.
* PSCC - prospective short circuit current 0 - 26kA
* Insulation resistance measurement with a test voltage of, 100V, 250V
and 500V DC.
* Loop impedance measurement without tripping any type of RCD
* RCD auto test
etc

Of course it could be that the Dilog box is a POS ... they don't say ;-)

Any good reason not to buy one?

Do you need a brand new one? I got a 1552 off eBay with 11 months
calibration remaining on it for 360.00
