Update guys is the Oovvaaa has been delivered to the "Spa of Neil" whereupon I was phoned by the paintsprayer manager who uttered a long list of expletives along the lines of "A little paint job!!! you`ve gorra be fexxxxx kiddin me" ....so I took that as he was fine with it!!! lol
From the photos in the brochure, the laminate worktop and metal surround is missing but am sure we can fix that along with the paint jobby
Diomede, yes it does look very similar, especially the top although as you say the pump is opposite sides.
Al, I had a Phillips Whirlpool toploader in 1993, 1100 spin the one with the dark grey flip up control panel, vario time temp & spin, had it in a small hallway cupboard with phillips D153 dryer above it, fab combination!!!
Bertrum, yes pics have been taken, the paintshop manager wants "All" the world to know just what had to be done..!!
Gorenje & Favorit, the label says "Made in France" so I guess that its a Brandt etc...will take some inside pics this weekend and post!!
