Hi :)
This is a vacuum that I picked up from a car boot sale a little while back, it worked but kept cutting out. Thanks to a member on here I found out what to do, cleaned the inside of the cyclone with a jet. Unfortunately, the rod came out of the cyclone so it now will not empty, despite working fine. So, please can anyone give any suggestions as to how to fix (apart from buy a new cyclone unit!) Thanks in advance :) I will leave you with some pictures :) |

Condition wise its not bad - considering I paid £2 for it from a refurbisher! He ahd put new filters in, so I had no problem with that, they turned out to be genuine Dyson ones!!!
It came with two tools as well, which isn't bad because most of the Dysons I have come across at car boot sales havent got any! |

The clutch movement seemed pretty smooth, good on delicate rugs & hard floors!
It is dated from 2001, and was made in Malmesbury, so it must have been one of the first DC07's, as in a Argos catalouge dated 2002 I own that is when they make their first appearence with Argos, so this model will have been one of the first :) |

It did take a bit of getting used to, as I had been using several DC04's and a DC01 prior to this, but the DC03 I have has its button in around the same place as the DC07, so it didn't take too long to get used to, as I had to use the DC03 most days before.
Shame it wasnt as good as a bargain as your DC04 :) |

£50 for a DC04? thats a bit high even for the English! Dont forget how tight the Scots are lolol Maybe for the Ranger, but not for the DC04, sorry - I'd value it at about £20-£25, but then - you may be lucky? |

Also, lay out all the tools in front of it, to show the buyer all the extras they will be getting - eg, from when I sold this cleaner for £55: |
