Bloody hell. All the good ones are never near me.

A Hotpoint microtronic. I lost out on one of these when the seller told me i wouldn't get delivery for a month and i cancelled it.

Hope someone will get it

I dont think..

The Hottie could be classed as Polar White any more

Do you get the impression its had a new door trim at some point lol!

Still a rare beast tho!

Yes it took Hotpoint a good few years to find a white plastic that wouldn't yellow. Still, a very rare machine and the fascia panel may be still available as a spare part!

Talking of tidy machines Gary that 1224 you have on fleabay looks super!

Even my Aunty Dolls was not kept that well - your may be the best I have seen for years.

Would of considered it myself had I not splashed out yesterday on a Kirby.

How ironic the Kirby that freaked me out when I first saw a neighbours when I was a wee nipper.

See how well it fares when I pick it up tommorrow evening.

Talking of Dryers & Logic 1100s

Seamus
These are nice looking machines, the only problem i have with this sort of control panel is they are often scratched or corroded being made of pressed aluminium, hopefully this one will be in good condition.

Paul
Well i know i stripped the logic 1100 at work but here is one up for grabs

Pardon our interruption...

Hi Gary.

Noticed that logic last night and, although methinks it has been fitted with an ecologic door, i am a bit tempted - mine and rob's hoover 3022 dryer came from keighley and its about an hours drive from my parents!
ROB - we have something to discuss!
Will let people know what we decide.

Those aluminium facia Philips' were soooo smart looking. The grandma of my best mate had the matching washing machine to that dryer above - it has the gold, rather than blue, dial inserts.
Also, a colleague of my mothers, when we lived near blackburn, had a blue insert matching set. her dryer had a porthold door though. After a bit of confirmation - i have always remembered her washer as being an '808', but have never seen one described anywhere by that moniker. Now, i even thought it was an 808, before i new of the existence of the 202,303,505,606 & 707! Just wonder whether anyone has a piccy of an 808 in their libraries?
It had a rectangular door release button and a similar pwder draw button.
a classic design of 1970's machine - just a shame that no one has one saved.
