Awesome.... The best drill I ever brought!!

I'd recommend to anyone

UPDATE..... I've now brought the Metabo LTX 18v with 2 x 3.0ah batteries......WOW that is one drill!!! Massive amount of power.

50mm in wood (compared to 30mm on my Dewalt 110v SDS)

Got it for a real good price of £220 good discount although we do spend allot with the supplier!!

Anyway the AEG's still a good drill but the Ni-Cad batteries are starting to die.

Hi RWJ,
Don't forget to register it on the Metabo web site for the 3 years extended warranty, this function is now operational as they were updating it and I've done mine already.

Cheers,
Lofty.

Found this thread while Googling for prices after using my Father's 18V Li Ion AEG.

Great bits of kit.

I've been thoroughly unimpressed with my pair of anniversary addition 18V Li Ion Makitas though. Pretty good when I first got them, but they soon wear out. They have been as well looked after as a drill can be!

To be honest our boss used to buy some of our lads AEG drills and I thought they were garbage. The batteries held there charge ok for about a week then just broke. I thought they were very heavy and very poor in general.
