Yeeh I know the Snap on are expensive, but I m not willing to spend over 400 pounds for that so I was wondering to get something cheeper but in good quality ;)

Any 24V gun should do. My 19.2V does the job well enough, and was only £40.

Also on rusty suspension bolts and nuts as well - that is mainly what I need it for.
What is your max tourque?

Never tried it on major bolts, only a breaker bar on them. I use the gun on fiddly jobs like doing up balljoint nuts where you need the fast speed / torque to nip up the nut. Max torque is something like 300-400nm.

I borrowed the snap-on one off a mate, it's really good and has lasted him years with daily use. But very expensive.

Have you thought about a wired one? You can get corded ones with lots of torque for a whole lot less than cordless. I might get one just for those PITA nuts and bolts.
