They seem to be about £800 new, which if I am correct and it's 160amps seems a lot of money.

Even at £700 there are other machines I think I would choose, not saying there is anything wrong with Cebora, it's a good make but that's still a lot of money.

yeah thats what i thought ... thats 800+vat .. he said he paid 1700 for it from snap on stealer

Your budget gives you the chance of getting a first class machine.

Make sure it's the right one by letting us know what you are doing, what you may do in the future, is portability an issue etc etc, as much info as possible, some opinions from members should follow once they have some info to work with.

need it for work

car body .. exhausts .. and little fab on stainless
700 quid is my upper limit tbh .. would like to spend 500 max but if needs must haha
need it portable .. but if i have to get a trolly for it well i will have to get one

Good machine according to the owners on here, Same power, slight difference in price:

But wait for other to contribute, there are certainly other machines just as good.

Also these, which are similar to the Oxfords and some others, again a good machine.
