Bag on the back. I wrote bag on the bag by mistake. I never did see a cleaner with a bag on the bag. Not even from Hoover, and they were the market leaders in doing things for the sake of it.

That last comment made me laugh out loud!

Regarding the U4058 - i have never manged to get one of these, although They are surprisingly common for an exclusive, but as far as i know its only the plastic hood that makes it different from the Ranger that we knew, and as I am sure you know as well as I, it was just a standard Senior under that. The 4058 also had the older style rear hose access which was partly what prompted my comment about tools - that one brochure encapsulates every recent (at that time) style of upright tools.

Vacbear thanks again. I think you will find the chassis of the U4058 was plastic whereas the ranger was metal. I think possibly plastic with a metal liner inside it. So it would have been lighter, although I thought the rear hose connection would have been the same for both this machine and the ranger?
 
Hello!
I love my U 4058... it was extremely rare and I really found on one. It is quite different from uk rangers, I'd say it has the plastic base of USA last convertibles with a different upper hood. the base itself is the same as that used fon another very rare convertible that I own, mod U 4197, the onein white and red but with the full ranger hood. do you know what I mean? they were made in USA or at least, the 4058 had the base made in Usa
