An afternoon at 'Kirby Central U.K'

[turbopowerpaul]

Next up is the U4362 softbag Turbomaster.
Again, had never seen one of these in the flesh before that day - again a very light machine.
Didnt feel that much heavier than the Turbolite to be honest...

deatailing....

 

[turbopowerpaul]

and detailing of the softbag...

 

[turbopowerpaul]

and over to the top of the range Turbopower1000 - essentially the series that replaced the Turbomaster.

This one is the U2814 with the Permabag system of dust collection...

 

[turbopowerpaul]

the hood of the machine, in a nice shade of sparkly green. anyone any ideas as to the official title of this colour scheme?

 

[turbopowerpaul]

as a brief aside...

they only made two versions of the Turbopower1000, the other being the U2812, of which rob and me own an example.

This machine boasts sparkly blue colouring - again, anyone an idea of the official title?

Will post some more piccies tomorrow, when Rob gets to plug and play a little and we are introduced to some of James' fantastic collection of Kirby cleaners.

cheers

Sorry for the delay guys - still, better late than never.

Here we go then:

Just before we plug and play......
(p.s not james' real numberplate - just a bit of fun on my part!)

 

[turbopowerpaul]

James and Rob discuss.........

 

[turbopowerpaul]

Indoors now.....

first to be plugged in was this Hoover Commercial Dual Purpose. Love the colour.....

 

[turbopowerpaul]

I am sorry, but i can't for the life of me remember what this cleaner was/is. I am sure that someone will be able to help me here.

Also note the Electrolux 612 in the background....

 

[turbopowerpaul]

The softbag Turbomaster U4362 - really an incredibly light cleaner, when compared to its hardbag counterparts in the turbomaster lineup....

 

[turbopowerpaul]

Atmospheric shot.

Me and Rob hope to have our own softbag machine, having bought one off ebay nearly TWO SODDING MONTHS AGO, and still not having receieved it!

Getting rather miffed now - cant help feeling we are being seriously messed around! rant over.

 

[turbopowerpaul]

FINALLY - over to the Kirby's

and first off James' wonderful Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80...

 

[turbopowerpaul]

a better lit picture now, showing the wonderful shade of green that this machine carries. In superb condition...

 

[turbopowerpaul]

the hood....

 

[turbopowerpaul]

Again my lack of knowledge comes to the fore!

JAMESSSSS - what are the ones behind the Sanitronic?
