The WH1075 sold in the UK was a different version of the WH1075 that was sold on the continent, in that our model didn't have variable temperature of variable spin. The WH1075 and matching WT40 dryer were part of a range of colour co-ordinated appliances, being available in: White Almond...

Hello all. Thanks for the background info Fredrik, to this lovely range of machines. 1970s and 1980s Electrolux washing machines were always a rarity in the UK (from my experience) and all of them were cases of rebadging of other manufacturers products, with the original mid 1970s offerings...

p.s attached a photo of the UK 3 button Rolls Concorde - ours had round lids - and also some images for the TallenTwin, which was previously the Rolls Rapide. Another question - does anyone know if the TallenTwin is a W151 or a W152? p.p.s apologies to John for hijacking this thread a little...

Hi John. Congrats on the new acquisitions, particularly on the Tallent Concorde. As Mike mentions above, it does look to be in good condition. Hope you are able to power it up soon. Tallent Engineering is the company that either a) acquired the rights to the Rolls design twin tubs and...

The pictures aren't very good sadly - it was listed before ebay had the zoom facility. Better than nothing though. Paul

CREDA DWB502 Modular 500 series .... .... well, that was one of them anyway. This one was on ebay a number of years ago and is the only one I have ever seen. Paul

Looking at your ratings plate, the differentiation between the serial number and datecode is a lot more difficult to detect but pretty sure yours will be date code '24', judging by the rather drunk application of '4630' followed by the rather more composed application of '24'. Plus machines had...

Hi Kevin. Many thanks for the photos and for confirming the model code of your Countess - most definitely wasn't expecting KBA. My Countess was one of the earliest machines that I acquired many years ago for the princely sum of £12 and is from the later blue range that you mentioned. I don't...

Hi Richard. Manic little things aren't they - almost exhausting to watch! lol. Registers quite high on the cuteness scale too :-) Enjoy! Paul p.s just seen on Kevin's thread a picture of your new washroom - it looks superb :-)

Hi Kevin. Welcome to the forum and love the washroom - plenty of space for machines to take over! LOL. They have a tendency to breed unless you keep them in check. Pleased to see that one of the button control 'New Generation' Hotpoint dishwashers is preserved. 71360? Another collector managed...

.... and it took me 30+ years to notice that there was one in The Secret Life of the Washing Machine!

The original model was the 1963 Imperial REX, which also had a brochure ....

In 1965 they also introduced the Imperial Automatic 65 ...

and a couple of images of the Superautomatic - these seem to have been sold from 1965 to 1967 ...

and some more adverts for the Superautomatic ....

Hi Alan. Afraid I don't have a copy of the 20 page brochure sadly. Would be really surprised if there isn't one knocking around in someone's archive, cause they advertised in many newspapers and did so heavily too. Closest I can provide you with is an advert with a drawing of the brochure on...

As has been mentioned by others, it was a real shame that having seen his machines find new homes (see the linked thread), that ill health generally prevented him from travelling to Wash-in's elsewhere to see them. We all also missed out on his presence and banter. My condolences go out to his...

He also helped save mine and Mathew's Hoover 3236H, with me driving down to Saltash from Derby one Thursday evening after work and going to the school to pick up the Hoover and the top loader the following day. The first photo shows Gary with the machines he helped save and Beverley Kinsella...

Gary Frightening how time flies by at such an insane rate of knots and how things change, sometimes for the better and sadly sometimes for the worse. Remembering signing into the forum in years gone by and the sense of excitement at seeing a new thread set up by Gary, unveiling another vintage...
