I found it. Rather useful explanation too. The cleaner is actually more in keeping with a 62, except for the 65/80 handle. CLICK HERE TO GO TO vintagerepairer's LINK | ||

Walita
What a curious machine this is, I have seen all varieties of Electrolux machine in different territories but I think this one has to take the biscuit. I must say, I quite like the colour.
By the way, it has a 65 style filter, you can see the moulded ends sticking out the back. It looks quite tapered in to the rear but that may just be the angle that the photo was taken at, and there seems to be a reflection of the wand too. I have not had much time to look at the rest of the pictures but it was interesting to see the Philps cleaners and the Philips mixers in those bright colours, we only ever had white versions. I don't know if you remember that far back but Fanny Cradock always seemed to use those Philips mixers. Al | ||

And what about this
Looks like it is based on the Lux 80. Now, before there is a clamour of never having seen this style of clip for the from door - I have seen it once. The earliest version of the Trident cleaner (from 1965) which seems to be based on the 80 although it was introduced two years before it, used this style of clip.

Its even more of a hotch-potch
As you can see in this view it actually has two wheels at the back, a style introduced on the Lux 90 and carried on through 94, 302 & 303.
However, the overall design is more like the 80 than the 90 - the 90 etc. was slightly shorter and more squared off than the earlier model. This machine apparently dates from 1980. The photo stream is absolutely fascinating with products mainly from Philips but also GE and, I think, Hamilton Beach Al CLICK HERE TO GO TO vacbear58's LINK | ||
