Some treasures

[hoovermad]

Hi Guys.
Finally got round to getting back on here. Thought i'd share some photos with you. Some of these units are mine that are part of my collection, some of these other items are up for grabs if anybody interested.

This Hoover Spinarinse is a bit tatty, but is up for grabs if anybody interested.

Also, having a problem downloading multiple photos onto this link, can anybody give me any pointers, or do I have to do link for each item?

Old Zanussi S118T. This works very well, no bearing noise, whole machine quiet as a mouse. Need to move this on as well as not really my cup of tea lol!

[hoovermad]

Another Turbopower up for grabs. This one is a non runner tho, but cant remember what the problem was

This is one of my treasures, all fully functioning. Have put in replacement timer. You might recognise her from ebay few months ago. I do need the back cabinet for it though if anybody has one lying about coz i put it somewhere safe and cant find it DOH! She does still need tidying up and bit tlc but is used most days.

And her sister, matching and working vented washer dryer

This is one of my lateset finds. Unfortunately, bigger job than first thought. Have found replacement outer tub, fitting new bearings and see what else we need

 

[hoovermad]

And finally... couple of old Hotpoint top loaders. One of them is new gen vesion, the other a little newer. Keep going back to them and having another go, then loose interest and put em away again!

Hi there Bjorn

Lovely machines you have there, thanks for sharing. I assume it's the other Rob who wanted the S118 as I have the later version. It really does look nice though. I hope Paul and Rob can have it!

All the best

Rob

PS here is the advert for a similar Zanni. I take it the S118 was the 520 spin version?

BJORN!

Welcome to the group!

Fantastic machines there! Some real classics I must say.

Well If I may just step in and be mega cheeky I will take those Hoovers off you If I may once I have spoken to Paul?

I guess we will have to arrange postage on them but we defo will have them off you - they are both missing links in our Hoover Turbopower collection!

My aunty Carol had the grey Turbo 2 1994 - 1998 and the cream TP is a missing link in the other half.

Let me know what you want for them in an email and how much to post to us.

Once again welcome to the club.

Rob and PAul

Nice lil collection there bjorn! I wondered when we would see you again!

Do you have anymore gems in your collection?

Darren

 

[aquarius1984]

Just a thought

Bjorn let me know what town me live in, potentially to drive down and we may possibly have the Zanussi off you too???

Just a few of my Turboopwers......

Hi there Bjorn.

Remember seeing one of those Zanussi's lead on its back at the top of the scrap metal skip, at the tip which is five minutes walk from my grandma's in Lancashire. Would have been 15 maybe 20 years ago. The skip was one of the big ones - I climbed the stairs and it was wedged in teetering on the edge, in wonderful visual condition. Wonderful looking machines.

Can I ask - what model number is that beige/yellow Turbopower Boost? Have never seen one of those before.

Cheers
Paul

Morning!

Thanks again for the welcome. Always try n read here, but rarely have time to post.

Any hoo, the Zanussi s118t is dual spin 400/800. Amazingly quiet though.

The yellow Turbopower model no is U2716.

Havent got much more in my collection, although i have got winging its way to me a Hoover 800 Autocare and a Hoover dryer, think the model of that is D6042, but couldnt swear to it. I'll take some photos n post em when they arrive in the flesh.

If any of you guys are looking for anything in particular, let me know n i'll keep my eyes open because do have fair few units come through the shop here. Alos, do have accounts with major parts suppliers, so again, gissa shout if you need help n i see what i can do.

Hi Bjorn

Thanks for the offer! If you ever see an early chrome door or heavens above a square door Creda I would be more than happy. These are pretty rare though! Also depends where you are based.

Take care

Rob

Hi Rob

By the chrome door Creda, do you mean the ones with large square orange buttons and timer on left? If so, i'm gonna really upst you because scrap man took one away about 3 weeks ago. Needed bearings on it. Will keep my eyes open tho
