New Cordless Drill Required

[TheKnat]

After many years of faithful service, my black and decker cordless drill has finally died, so I need a replacement for it.

My old drill was a 14.4V model, but I would ideally like a 18V model with Li-on batteries. I had been looking at THIS model, but wanted to get a second opinion or recommendation of a better one. Hoping to pay around the £100 mark.

Thanks

Looks like the Makita it is then! I'm only an amateur DIY person, but find I have to use a drill a lot for various purposes, so the two batteries will be very handy for me.

First job for it, screwing down boards in the loft!

Thanks for the advice everyone.

Picked up the drill yesterday and put it straight to work screwing down boards in the loft. Really impressed by the driving power, so I decided to also use it to put up a new coat rack. The hammer mode worked perfectly and didn't struggle at all.

Although, yes I am an a DIYer, I'm basically having to renovate my entire house, whilst living in it at the same time. The drill and batteries will get plenty of use, don't you worry.
