Nice heel's, Ry 
My sister had a System 3 that she bought second hand, complete with power head, in her uni house. She also had a Delonghi Combi 800 that came with that house. The senso got left in an outside toilet when she moved out. I never did forgive her.

We had the Hoover Sensotronic System 2, but with cream tools. The hose handgrip was identical to the Powerglide, Turbopower, and Junior types of hose handgrip. Two standard length cream extension tubes, and a short-necked Hoover Contour floor nozzle.
The Sensotronic black tool set I always associated with the second generation machines (System 10, 20, 25, etc).

The beige Powerglide seemed to be a later variant. I'm sure that the red one came first.

Hello Rolls. The black tool kit was for the 2nd generation as I remember it. The darker set on the first cleaners was dark brown, though in that brochure there it does of course look black. Because Hoover discontinued the beige and the brown tool kits to make way for black, I thought the beige Powerglide with brown tools may have been the first version, though of course both cleaners in the Powerglide range were very short lived and were built on the cusp of many changes Hoover were making, so I agree with you that the red model could have been first.
Although I am certain the long-necked floor tool was designed for those cleaners with the remote control cleaners with very short hose handles, it does seem that Hoover supplied it with other long handled cleaners too, based on my memory of the Powerglide I saw, and the booklet above, and the cleaner ryry owns. Knowing Hoover, they probably did this to use up stock of existing parts in an existing colour.
