Hi Eric,
I bought one this summer to replace a Makita with two knackered batteries. So far so good, just make sure forward/reverse is probably selected otherwise the gearbox appears to slip. Certainly goods value for money. Wickes were doing a great deal back in the summer, 2 4ah batteries and drill for £99, haven't seen it at that price recently though.
Cheers Rick

They have it at that price now......and Argos have it with 2 x 1.5ah batteries for £59.99.....looks like a good deal to me.

Forgot to mention the one I bought has the brushless motor.
