I want an aluminium case for mine. Hate the naff plastic one that my drill & impact driver combination came in.

Pfftt that's an electricians drill no good for manly plumbing

18v makita is a great drill. Not sure how 'heavy duty' a drill you need but mine has never let me down. Bosch multi construction drill bits and there isn't much it can't handle.

There are many different types of 18v makitas though some not so good.

.....it isn't one of the red tools....

 

[gasmanrob]

Whilst I like the red tools and the Bugatti price tag. The range isn't big enough so for now I'm a makita man

What a price for a battery! Thought i was seeing things.

maybe true if you need a different level of drill and have some more money. depends on your idea of better. 🙂

I got a cheap Dewaltzing Matilda with 3 batteries for £125 from screwfix before chrimbo. Not Li-Ion but it's a decent drill 🙂

On Amazon they have a deal for a 458 with 2 x 3ah batts for £185, better drill and better value all round.
