I just noticed that you were looking for a Meddings drill. When I bought my Myford Lathe the bloke also had a very nice Meddings LF1 pillar drill similar to this one.

He said it was for sale but hadn't advertised it. He was a decent chap and will not be looking crazy money for it, might be worth asking about it. I'll send you his contact details by private message.
It will probably suit your purposes better as it is ready to use straight away, is single phase and a lot more compact. The other drill needs a big single phase motor, probably over £100 and some fettling to get it working. If you were willing to spend £120 on the other drill plus another £100 on a motor plus loads of work you might be better spending £200 on a meddings. I have a meddings and I only paid £140 for it, so bargains are still out there.
