How much do I need to spend to get a decent cordless drill. One where the battery isn't completely f***ed after a year or two.

SF and BQ have Hitachi for £90, Makita, DeWalt & Blue Bosch for under £100 The batteries on my Bosch died after less than two years. I would not recommend. All rechargeables die after a while but I would go for a Hitachi, DeWalt or Makita, preferably not with NiCd batteries. -- (\__/) M.
