Well that's opened up a can of worms! The Wickes one is listed as 1050rpm no load and rated speeds. Dewalt and Makita as 1500 and 1200 respectively (no load), but the Bosch is listed on their website as being 900 rpm rated. What the fuck does 'rated speed' mean anyway?
In all honesty, I think the cheapo Wickes one will be fine for my level of professionalism and competence (low) with the price difference being what it is.

I'd go to Screwfix and get a Bosch Sds. The Bosch keyless chuck adapters are ok and not too pricey but if you're serious about your wood work I'd get a dedicated drill with higher RPMs.
