Default Makita LXT series : 18v combi BHP451SFE

has anyone got one of these http://toolmonger.com/wp-content/upl...kitaBHP451.jpg how do they compare to the rest of the market? I'm looking to buy one but do you think there worth the money? its about £325 (including the impact driver)

£285 for the combi + 2 batteries

Shops are selling them at around £300 (screwfix), ps-tools at £270

so then people, whos got one?

cheers luke

ill second that the anniversary drill is very good bit of kit, battery lasts ages (charges quick), job light is very good too. the metal case is very handy for protecting the drill too, especially when youre spirit level decides to attack it when your in the middle of totalling youre van

Hi guys, I also have the drill well nearly the whole kit and it is fantastic anyone who uses it loves it. I also have the Hilti TE 7-A which in terms of drilling it is about the same. Well recomend it.
