I can highly recommend these:

're extremely tough, and a great size.

DeWalt are fine, Makita are also good, as are Bosch (Blue). Do you know what size you're looking for? Smaller ones (~12V) are lighter and easier to use, but obviously less powerful. Larger ones (~18V) are quite a bit heavier but significantly more powerful.

I have one of these:

it's great. Good balance, huge torque, good battery life. It comes with 3 battery packs, which means you never ever run out of juice.

Machine Mart have a huge range

Personally I'm a convert to Makita, but you wouldn't be dissapointed with a blue Bosch. The grey Wickes range is also well worth a look - good value/quality balance, good spec & warranty - for example -

You've got some tools, so make one yourself. Birch ply. Plenty of designs out there, or read the excellent Taunton press "The Toolbox Book".

I'll second that,there aint nuthin better than a homemade tooly on a trolly.

Ooh! A DIY tip. Well done. Makes a nice change from all the people showing each other their tools.

Here you go -

even has wheels.

I'd always go for seperate drill and driver to avoid changing bits all the time.

I recently bought a Bosch PSR300 when they were =A310 off in Argos and it's excellent.
