Mikey!

Hi Mikey its Jacob!

As you probably know, Chris is coming to mine on Wednesday while Sunday so we will probably get in touch with you during the week.

Glad you had a good time and some cool machines you have!

Jacob

Hey

Yes he did say was going to yours. Always on look out for more machines lol

Hi

Yes, it was a great day, we put the Servis Gem, Quartz and the Classica in, but spun the rest

Here are a few pics of Mike's machines!

The Servis Dryer will be mine and my servis dryer will be his.

 

[aquarius8000]

The machine I never thought I'd see in my life, let alone working

 

[aquarius8000]

The Gem. This weighs a bloody ton but is a great washer and it is quieter than the WT960 washing when this is at 1000!

 

[aquarius8000]

This machine HAS to be Mike's best...the W085 Philips...

 

[aquarius8000]

Hoover Electron A3254 round door 800 machine. Sadly I didn't see this or the W085 going.

If anyone has a drawer front going spare, please let Mike know!

 

[aquarius8000]

The Sapphire AutoSelect 1300 and the Servis dryer that matches the 3305, so we're swapping, because my MK262 goes with the MK600.

Seems like you all

had a great time, and great Chris that you got to experience one of your dream machines, always a special moment that many of us here have experienced, great you have to.

Mikey that classica looks in fantastic condition, unlike my severly yellowed aristocrat classica washer dryer. Having seen so many sorry looking softwaves about I'm so pleased to see a classica in good condition.

Enjoy your summer of meeting up and laundry fun

Now this thing is tiny, it's tiny! Smaller than my Candy!

The Bendix 7179...

 

[aquarius8000]

His bedroom, with the WM12P, Bendix 73388, Zanussi FL811 and the rest of the others you've seen.

 

[aquarius8000]

The Soba BabyNova compact machine. Cost around £800. Same drum as the 7179.

Final pic

Final pic for now, the other 3 in his room. If anyone wants close ups of the machines then just ask and I'll happily post them.

Thanks you Mike!

Chris!

Vids coming next Sunday.

Mathew..

...It was truly AMAZING! It was so great! A dream come true! It was such a treat seeing such a classic in person and going! I just loved every second of it!

There is an old woman down my old road who still has her SoftWave 800, and when that dies, it's mine Link attached to my SoftWave gallery.

Another pic of the Quartz for good measure!

Chris.

@ Aquarius8000 love your Hoover Classica, how old is it? Seen a few on Ebay from time to time.

 

[aquacycle]

Wow, I've not seen a Servis Gem in that style in a LONG time. I believe those were the first of the post-Merloni take over machines. Great machines, very reliable and decent wash action, just a shame about the crappy drum paddles which means the machine was useless if it wasn't a full load

Hey there, I must pop out and visit you some time, been ages since I've seen you. Your Servis Gem looks like an updated version of the Fridgidare washer that Rob and Paul have.

dispenser front

Hi Mike

found this one which whilst not the exact model may be an improvement over no cover, especially if you could paint over the blue line with white or yellow, but that would take a steadier hand than ive got. Anyway email me your address if you'd like me to send it to you.
