Good vlaue DMM in the UK

[Guybrush]

Hey!
I'm looking at picking up my first DMM and wondered if anyone else on here who is in the UK could recommend me a decent one that wont empty my wallet.
I know there are tons of 'What DMM should I buy' threads but they all seem to recommend ones that can only be bought from US stores such as Radio Shack.
Any other UK DIYers able to suggets something suitable?
Thanks guys/girls!

There's so many multimeters out there. Even Maplin have a half decent range. I got my last one from Banzai, it was about €40 but it's not available anymore.

Things to look for are:
autoranging, so you don't have to keep switching to a different setting
capacitance testing, make sure you check the range of capacitance measured, the cheaper ones don't go very high or low
continuity testing, something that beeps - this I use all the time in debugging builds
transistor hfe testing for PNP and NPN - some come with an adapter, some have little holes built in

I got mine from maplins for around £15.  Similar to this one below but mine doesnt have the 50hz generator..

Thanks guys thats great.  Do you know if the one you linked to sam_c has autoranging? It doesn't seem to mention it on the page.
