    Bosch GA 2000 any good?

    Im looking for a decent all rounder of a drill and I've seen these at Screwfix with lots of rave reviews. IIRC they're around a hundred beer tokens. Just wondering if anyone on here would also recommend them? Thanks.

    Ongoing Home Improvements

    Nice job. Don't know if you checked this out first but just a heads up for future reference...
