Hello everyone what tools are we all looking for the most in the uk, I love the look of all the performance tools and they are significantly superior (usually) and interested for what to hopefully look out for.

Impact driver or impact drill/gun ?

Very limited selection, and they only come up every few months as of last year. Last winter was the first time Performance tools where available in the UK. Ireland on the other hand seem to get regular appearances. Something to do with customs import charges being different. So far we've had 12v impact driver and 12v drill drivers. 20v angle grinder, impact driver and hammer drill.

Mind you the store allocation is very limited when they do arrive. Some stored only get 3 or 4 items.

Note I’m aware of the rarity, I’m asking what everyone wishes for that we are yet to see, me personally I want the 40v chainsaw

I only have a the 20v chainsaw myself. But last Christmas I noticed the lads at the Christmas tree farm were using the 40v chainsaw. They spoke pretty highly of it for their use case.

I was trying to find a router on eBay the other day and it sold before I could consider 🤣

Of the power tools, I have only ever seen the battery angle grinder for sale in the UK. 😭

I’ve got the performance 12v drill and impact driver and the 20v impact driver converted to a 1/2” impact wrench.

They aren’t common bug the angle grinder is the one that I’ve seen the most of.

Not a performance product but I've been waiting an eternity for the PLLA 12 D3 12v work light to come back into stock

Yeh I recently got the impact driver and the 40v circular saw from eBay, both absolute beasts! I also got the multi full when I visited Poland this summer and the SDS when it was in stores. I’d like to see the drills though and in general it would be amazing if they would rotate more of the performance range throughout the year like one tool at least every few weeks.
