You won't find a better make than Makita.Its a good cordless ,has a LI-ion 3 Amp Hr Battery. The only thing I would say is depending on how often you use it, you might consider a 2nd battery.Thats a decent price too.....

Matabo are also excellant too, just steer clear of De-Walt (tat)......

I have had a couple of Makita tools for over 30 years. Still going well.

I've got the standard one in blue.

Go for it 1st class drill, you won't regret it.

That is a good price. Makita are never cheap, unless you get the imported ones from the USA, but then you struggle with spare parts and warranty etc.

Sadly, I missed out when Screwfix were doing it for £120.

Just in case you are still pondering..

I have this exact drill. The special edition just means a different colour and a nice carry case. I think its a brilliant bit of kit. The battery lasts for ages, and when it runs out it literally takes 22mins to recharge. I've got an extra battery but have never really needed to use it.
Its lovely and ergonomic, mechanically it performs well.

Im really pleased with this drill and I hope it will last me for a good few years!
