I’d flog it all and put it towards a better platform tbh.
Jigsaws and circular saws are only really any use if they’re half decent. And cheap sanders are way worse for vibration as well. Last time I used my corded makita RO for a few weeks straight it caused havoc with my hands. If I find myself in the same situation again I’m definitely buying the Festool or Mirka (but that obviously doesn’t make much sense for DIY).
I would also say that I’ve never regretted buying a decent tool, but almost always regretted buying cheap.

Totally hear you on this, but the sentimental attachment is strong. It's not my job like it is for you guys, so the negatives don't affect me in the same way.
I’d hang onto the drill then. But you’ll probably get an ok deal on an impact driver and drill combo with 2 batteries. Can get a brushed circular saw for under £100 etc. It does however add up quickly. I’d maybe even consider just getting corded stuff.
