Thorite is backing the offer with a 12-month warranty, plus a money-back guarantee.
Aimed squarely at garages, serious DIY enthusiasts and woodworkers, the compressor package combines a low price with durability and performance, according to the company.
Expected to be just the first of many such web-based offers, it will be available exclusively on www.thorite.co.uk from 2 January 2006.
