In what British pounds or Euros?

They don't make it anymore so I suppose they would go for around 500; but when I got mine they were about $1300 Canadian.

Yes it was.
I had it on the job until we were finished (about two months or so) in case the installer came back for it.
He never did.
No wonder our cable rates are so expensive.

For clarification, a drill like this Dewalt

Thanks in advance,

The hammer settings are unlike an impact in that the drill 'hammers' at a high rate of speed for masonry, etc., to get into the work. The impact drill provides high torque for tightening/loosing stuff. Hope this helps.
