Been some good Bosch deals lately, this is a bit niche being 10.8V but normally retails around £140, so worth a deal post I hope:
This Bosch Twin Pack includes the new 2.0ah 10.8v batteries with 2 of the most popular machines in the 10.8v Bosch Range. This includes the 2 speed combi hammer drill and the impact driver complete in an LBOXX.
GSB 1082 LI Features:
At 189 mm it has the shortest design in its class for optimum handling, especially when performing drilling and screwdriving applications overhead and in tight spaces
Newly developed 2-speed planetary gearbox for powerful screwdriving and drilling applications in wood and metal, and impact drilling in masonry
Professional quality 10 mm Auto-Lock drill chuck
GDR 108 LIN Features:
At 137 mm it has the shortest design in the 10.8 Volt class for optimum handling, especially when driving screws overhead and in tight spaces
Powerful 105 Nm torque for 80% of all conventional cordless impact driver applications in metal and concrete
High speed (2,600 rpm) for fast work progress
Includes:
GSB 10.8 Combi Drill
GDR 10.8 Impact Driver
2 x 2.0AH Lithium Batteries
Charger
Lboxx Carry Case

Drill spindle thread - 1/2"
Battery voltage - 10,8 V
Battery capacity - 2,0 Ah
Weight incl. battery - 1 kg

I personally prefer the DeWalt 10.8, slightly more torque in the impact, great little tools though.

Agreed some of the DeWalt stuff is quite underrated.
Both the Makita and Dewalt 10.8v kits have 1.3Ah batts, whereas this kit has 2Ah. 50% more batt power is quite useful I expect, especially with 10.8v.

This is a good deal. :sunglasses: I paid around £60 each for my Bosch professional drill & driver over two years ago and they've been great for most DIY jobs around the home and garden.
Batteries last a long time stay charged for ages when not in use.
I don't know if this deal includes the L- boxx but, if it does than its a real bargain.
Edit: I see it does contain an L-boxx! That's £30 saved there!

had my 1.3ah kit for nearly 5 years and it has been faultless in both home and work use.
Finally got to make use of the 3 year warranty on my gop multitool, emailed late Wednesday, confirmed Thursday for Friday pickup and back with me Tuesday with new motor and controller fitted so 5/5 for warranty service.
I think the prices are dropping as they are doing brushless motors in the new ones so the old stocks being sold off.
Dunno if extra torques needed as I have driven in plenty of 12g 3.5" screws into hardwood like it is going into cheap softwood.

This also has a hammer action so can drill into masonry which I think is not the case with the Dewalt 10.8v twin pack.

IMO the hammer action on these 10.8v drills is pointless, before getting the DeWalt I tested the Makita 10.8v Combi, 5mm drill bits into aerated blocks or mortar was its limit, handy I suppose if you didn't have a bigger combi though...

My Makita 10.8 twin set has a hammer drill, but not sure if that's always the case for all Makita 10.8 sets.

Great drills.
