That Siemens looks awesome and the dc07 has cleaned up really nicely too! Don't worry about unrestored vacs; I have my fair share to do yet. |

My Mother bought this new some time in the early 2000's and it has been a very trusted vacuum, also used by a number of family until I got hold of it. You just got to look after your Dyson and it will look after you! |

Hey Guido, thanks for the compliments! The toy seniors are quite simple really, I'm sure you can have it up and running soon enough. Thanks for viewing them! |
