The best mig for car body repairs?

[lornemalvo]

If my boc machine (previous thread), turns out to be dead, can anyone please recommend a reliable and effective mig (to be used with gas), for car bodywork. Having read up a little, the idea of a Euro Torch appeals to me. I also use 0.6mm wire and I've noticed that some welders take a minimum of 0.8mm. There is also the choice between an inverter or transformer type. I can't see many reviews online, or write ups, most seem to be in the USA. I'd appreciate some guidance as it's over 30 years since I bought a machine. Thanks in advance.

If you can't find a reliable mig welding unit in Sheffield there's no hope for anyone.

You won't get a new transformer based welder now unless it happens to be old stock, so any new welder will be inverter based.

Try here first.

The r tech 180 inverter has proved to work.out well with mates, I think the latest version shown in test by @doubleboost has a longer guarantee now

It depends on your budget
