hi guys
im new to the forum and am currently learning to mig weld at college and a have recently brought a fiat 126 to restore i currently have an ancient telwin that doesnt work very well and so i want to upgrade. i have roughly around 400 to spend. it will mostly be used for car bodywork but will also be used to wld thicker steels. i ideally want a euro torch fitting for ease and strength.
i have seen these two

http://www.migtigarc.co.uk/MIG_Welder/mig_welder.html (the siegen 180 mig welder on that page)
and this one but would need to make a trolley up for it

thanks in advance for your help
