All round Drill/Driver package?

Im after a drill/ driver and a impact driver in a package really!

Been looking at:

Bosch
Panasonic
Makita

This will be for personal use for now but as long as it last will be my tool of choice when i become qualified

Looking at the 200 quid mark!

Cheers

if you can find the 2ah 18v makita twin pack floating about thats a good kit to get. I got a bargain in B&Q for a ryobi 18v impact driver and 18v combi drill for £70 after christmas and the impact driver is well worth the money IMO and im sure big-all will agree

Sorry should have stated i am training to be a chippy!

Looking at the Panasonic Combi with free cam at the mo, maybe about 300 quid!

Defo not Ryobi as i consider there drills to be very DIY

Makita or Pany really!

id only buy ryobi cordless drills and impact drivers all the other stuff wouldnt stand upto the work i do on site. But for the money they are good.

Id go for the makita package Big-all posted a link to.

and then I got a bare Makita 18v impact driver from ebay for about £65. All works wonderfully.
