but has the full 2 years cover

For another 20 squids or so would have bought you a Ryobi a proper drill

http://www.screwfix.com/prods/80118/Power-Tools/Cordless-Drills/Ryobi-CDI1141-Combi-Drill-14-4V#

Be it 14.4V but will probably do as much and more than the B&D. But I'm sure your new drill be be fine for your usage. Enjoy!

That is such an awesome deal its unbelievable, surprised the deal has been going on for so long now, they have one with an angle grinder too now.

Too good to be true, perchance?

usualy the free tools are of lower value than the hammer drill in this case the impact driver is the better bit off kit

but definatly avalable

 

[lee786]

how much was the deal? i don't seem to be able to get on the site at the moment.

plus this

for £100 the pair

 

[lee786]

it is a really good deal. but even if i would of known about it b4 i bought the B&D one i got today i doubt i would have got one



i only wanted a cheap one £60 max so getting a 18v with a one hour charger for £40 will do me for my light usage.

good luck with your choice

you may or may not struggle with the decking as thats quite a heavy job

the good thing about ryobi is you have over 20 tools for the home and garden that use the same batteries

 

[lee786]

no doubt there willl be some swearing involved lol


but it's only a decking kit not a full blown decking job

funny thing is i went on the site on sunday and seen that kit for £150 +15 delivery so i phoned them to make sure the price was correct

first guy i spoke to said "no way" so he talked to another guy who said yes the price is correct then i ordered one went back on the site 20 mins later and the price had been put back up to £350

kit will be here tomorrow

good luck anyway
and make shure you comply with any instructions to protect the bottom off the timbers as timbers in direct contact with damp earth will rot much much quicker than the rest
