which electrical polisher?

this post mostly applies to those here who live in the UK.

I suffer from serious OCD (obsessive car detailing) and decided to get an elictrical polisher to ease the pain of my monthly 3 stage polishing marathon.

because of limited availability in the UK and the 110V issue, I have ruled out getting a Porter Cable.

I've looked around on a few other detailing boards and have so far seen 3 options mentioned most, but I thought I'd ask the question here.

Festool-RO-150-FEQ-Plus-Rotex-Sander

Bosch-GEX-150-Turbo-Sander

DeWalt-D26410-Dual-Orbit-Random-Orbit-Sander

Dewalt DW443 230V Var Right Angle Sander 150MM
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0001IWEWS

So the questions are:

1. Has anyone in the UK used any of these and what are your opinions (positive and negatives please)?

2. Does anyone in the UK use something different with very good results (available with ease in the UK using 240V & less than 350GBP please)?

3. Any other suggestions welcomed

Thanks
