Sparky BBK21500 1500W 2Speed CoreDrill Machine 230V | eBay
Looking to replace a Marcrist DDM1 with maybe one of these
They look identical to the discontinued DDM2
Are they? anyone used one?

There was a core drill thread not long ago... I avoid Sparky like the plague after my last sparky core drill!

Me, I have one......absolute beast.
Not in the same league as the little sparky, although i dont think they are made by the same company.

only issue is big red tool box, they dont hold stock they come direct fm another source, so my 240v one arrived and was 110v, which ****ed me off as i then needed a transformer, which after a lot of hassle brt sent foc, but it was too small for the job, kept popping the breaker on the drill, so bought a nice big transformer, which i have to lug around now, drill is great big red tool box are a crap company to deal with, pay a few more notes to another supplier
