The cheap Fein clone is back in Aldi:

Bought one last year when they reduced the last few to £30 and it's
been very good for those jobs where nothing else will do.

Also, I see they're quoting Toby's post about their swing drill from
this newsgroup but attributing it to diybanter.com:

Looks like the first generation Fein which you need an allen key to
fix the blade. The latest Feins have a quick release which hopefully
they have a worldwide patent on. The side grip is a bit useless with
a tool that small. In fact almost all the battery/powerdrills I have
owned, the side grip is taken off never to be used again.

I would be interested to know if it was good at drilling joists but I
expect the gears would die a relatively quick death if it was used in
anger for that sort of heavy duty work, nor would it have the umph.
Angle grinder to cut down a spade bit in a short body branded drill/
driver would be far more reliable.
