This really IS a SEXY BEAST !
This machine does not seem to have been used too much, but simply "badly used". This Pine-green version is my very favourite senior of the 652 series ! I have one in very good condition. Emma, I suppose you will find a new fan very very easily, even if the bag might take a longer time and patience, but there are many machines for sale on ebay.co.uk ( I regularly search for VINTAGE HOOVER or VINTAGE SENIOR ), some are for spares or not working ( this is not a rare machine yet, anyway ) so you might be lucky to replace both the bag and the front lens that seems to be cracked. And of course - like I do - save the rest of the parts for you future restorations ! Cheers from Italy ! GUIDO |
