Black and Decker are always worth a look at. Not the cheapest but one of the best.

The cheapest isnt always the best.

You tend to be there twice as long with a cheaper, normally lower wattage sander.

I like sanding I does!

you what

i would go with a simple to use sander that doesnt have over the top protection round the pad as this can some times foul the filler

Buy the most expensive and brightly coloured one available on a credit card.

performance pro do one in b&q which is the best of the budget range.

black n decker are shite, dewalts are awesome if you have money to burn or a serious job to do!

but if your only going to be sanding filler etc on a car your going to kill any brand sander anyway.

the B&Q one i bought is taking the punishment fine, and thats been used with water (i dont recomend this though lol), so for ?10 if it lasts a year then so be it.

fester is right though. biggest, shineyest and most expensive is the best ;) lol
