I'm not being funny collectors..but, who steals an old vacuum cleaner? :P Either spite or desperation was in play it seems, hardly noble traits ;p Ian |

yea Ian the vac in question was taken with a load of other stuff from my shed while i was on holiday years ago. i think i know who did it. 1 of those things. i wasnt really into collecting back then although now it upsets me to think about it. si |

Dare I say it but I actually prefer the Challenges color scheme :p not that the Electrolux is nasty looking at all, I had one..was useless to me though, no hose/cord etc. Ian |

hi ian yes i think it is refreshing to see a different colour scheme on something to what you are used to. what happened to your cordless, hoseless 65? si |

Went in the bin eventually, was years ago mate. I've got a Lux Z345 and a ZC90 and they're more or less identical mechanically :P so I think I've more or less made up for the loss ;] Ian |
