Benevolent employer giving me £100 for a drill - just seen a Hitachi

Makita 18V from Screwfix. £79. Alan.

[The Medway Handyman]

Agreed. Bargain of the century.

Makita make brilliant drill drivers, really feel good in the hand, great speed control, plenty of welly.

[The Medway Handyman]

What would that offer then? Never used a DeWalt, so no experience of them.

[Clint Sharp]

Seconded, bought one two weeks ago, very happy with it. Spend the extra

20quid on a selection of drill bits etc. or the Makita accessory kit for 14.99 and a bacon butty from the van outside (assuming yours has the same arrangement as mine).

[The Medway Handyman]

Noticed in B&Q ( a large one) that they have a Makita twin pack on offer, combi drill & drill driver, two bats & a charger in a case for £97 ish. Think they were 14:4v.

Worth a look, very handy sometimes having a combi & a driver.
