Love my impact driver and I love Bosch gear. It's so reliable and well made also very tactile.
However, I bought a McAllister impact driver from Screwfix, basically Screwfix and B&Q's own make. I bought it because it was so cheap compared to the completion. My first one developed a small grease leak from were the chuck goes into the body. Took it back to Screwfix, 5 minutes later, a new one in my mitts, superb customer service.
My pal Alan, (MadMoon) saw it, had a little play with it and went out and bought one himself, definitely recommended. For the amount of use it will get with me, it'll last a lifetime. Oh, two batteries as well, lithium, so you shouldn't be caught short.
All for under £80.

I've been doing a lot of work on my house and deal with Screwfix at least once a week. Their customer service is excellent and prices are very good

+1 for Screwfix- competitive pricing, and returns policy as good as it getsI've been doing a lot of work on my house and deal with Screwfix at least once a week. Their customer service is excellent and prices are very good
My favourite Screwfix purchase is my Titan hoover. Only £45. I call mine ANITA, as it's almost an anagram, is a bit loud and has... um, she'll kill me if she reads thisOo-er, I seem to be thread drifting again

Bloody marvellous.
I should have bought one of these years ago. The Makita has changed my life. No more drilling a pilot hole, then a clearance hole and a c/sink plus the laborious
screwing - just a quick zzzzzzz and the job is done...

I've got one, the family bought it for my birthday along with the battery and charger which is why I was thinking about a Makita driver. The radio has been great and so far, very robust despite being drenched and having half a tree dropped on it. Looks like it could survive a nuclear strike.Welcome to the club Dave - now you need one of these:
