It"s not the first time the firm has offered a Fiesta Zetec S, but there has never been a diesel version before. The car goes on sale in the UK in Dec-ember and will be powered by a new 89bhp 1.6-litre four-cylinder oil-burner. It will be joined by a 99bhp 1.6 petrol variant, and both models will get an ST- style bodykit including 16-inch alloys.

The PS182KB packs an impressive 18V punch, and this power is neatly controlled by the collar behind the chuck. While you still get the usual progressive trigger, the collar varies the force the drill can apply – ideal for spinning up small fasteners like trim screws without damaging the heads.
Other pleasing touches include a clear and simple battery monitor on the rear of the drill. Push the button, and LEDs flash up to indicate exactly how much charge is left. As two powerpacks are thrown in, the device should last long enough to tackle even intensive tasks like wire brushing. There’s also a handy holder for the flat and crosshead screwdriver bits in the base.
The keyless chuck is easy to use, while the switch to change the direction of the head’s operation is well placed between thumb and index finger. We removed a series of trim screws in seconds, thanks to the drill’s sheer grunt. The downside is that it’s heavy. While the weight is well balanced, your wrist soon feels the strain. Yet this is still a great addition to your workshop.
