Ideally i want a 240v one and dont mind spending a bit of cash for a good one. Does anyone have anything they have found good at a good price even? any help would be good.

I have one which looks identical to the maplin picture, (except it's blue).
It is not terribly powerful, but it does a job. I've had it for 3 years or so.
My powerpack gave up the ghost after about a year, and it's an 18V supply, so not easy to replace. I run mine off a 3 nimh packs in series now.
At £30, I wouldn't recommend it. It is lightweight and flimsy compared to a real dremmel, or the better copies.
I paid £9.99 for mine from Homebase, and it is fine for my occasional needs.
Cheers
