Ryan:
So sad to hear you have to sell of some of your Sebo's to pay for bills on your car! I know how it feels though, sometimes, & how you wish you didn't have to give up a vacuum just to pay some bills. If I was in the UK or Scotland, & there wasn't the expense involved of shipping across the continent to North America, & it used 120 Volt instead of 220 Volt like Europe does, I would be bidding on one of those Sebo's in a heartbeat! Tried out a Sebo Automatic X5 back in November when visiting Greg Paul (fellow Canadian collector) & the Sebo's are perhaps the best made upright money can buy. Best of luck, & hopefully you get what they are actually worth....Rob | ||

That Stealth model is beautiful, I'd never seen one like that... I also really liked the video you made showing your dirt meter.... where in the world did you find a Sebo dirt meter? | ||

I had a brand new Toyota Aygo, it was bloody awful lol replaced it with a new Fiesta 1.6 Zetec S which was fine but nowt special. Had a Mondeo 2.5 V6 Ghia, that wasn't a bad car. | ||

Yes Ryan I just saw your Stealth on EBay last night. I was surprised you were selling it but can understand fully as to why you need to sell it. Its a rare model . I just sold my X4 and X1.1 too, but not on EBay, just to private local hotel and B&B owners. The X1 A/Stealth is a bit quieter than the more current Sebos though.
Have you driven/test driven the Vauxhall Antara? I wasn't impressed with it much but I do like the general design. | ||

think its one of the those phrases used by every copper in the country. It sounds much more professional than 'time to get a bloody move on'. 'Don't spare the horses' is another one of my favourites | ||

It's an old one that dates back to the times when police used horse drawn vans or 'Black Maria's' 'Don't spare the horses' as in get whipping! lol but I suppose its still relevant today with cars (Brake horse power) etc | ||

yeh wasn't too happy about that but but luckily it didn't really owe me anything lol I put a reserve on the stealth 1 though, it already finished at a stupid price so I've relisted it. | ||

Mk 1 Cavalier
Gosh that takes me back Ryan, is it a two door or 4 door?. Back in the day they were very popular indeed (they were good cars too) but although I see a fair number of Mk2s around I have not seen a mk1 since I dont know when. On my daily commute I see a couple of Mk3 Cortinas as well - and estate and a 2 door, although both rare that latter is REALLY like hen's teeth.

Ensign Stealth I got a brand new Ensign Stealth on Ebay last year for £82 including postage. I think it went for a low price because the seller didn't really know what they were selling and made no reference to the fact that it was basically a Sebo X1 in all but name. | ||

Years ago when I last saw an Ensign Stealth, it was listed three to four times by a seller who was a cleaning contract manager - they listed it firstly at £600, then when it didn't sell, down to £475, then down to £300 after the third listing and eventually sold for £260 odd the fourth and final time. | ||
