WOW!

I so cant wait visit next time!

My Mum had one from the early 1980's until it got replaced with the Turbomaster in 1988.

I remember as a child sliding the tool slot and putting toy cars into the hose port, be interesting to see the layout inside the slider. I do wonder if one of my toy cars finished it off by falling down near the brushroll, would this of been possible? I remember getting a good telling off for doing something to it near the end of its life.

Last time I had a Moulinex Major in my hand was back in 1995 when my Godmother threw her Goblin Lazer after buying a DC01.

She had the Moulinex before the Lazer and kept it as an upstairs cleaner throughout the Dysons and the Lazers lifes.

Not sure what happened to it, daresay its long in the trash.

How you finding its performance?

Yes I agree, MORE PICTURES LOL!

Moulinex

I sure wish we could get some of those European machines over here ,they are almost impossible to find,especially in the south where I live,I knew of Moulinex, but had no idea they made vacs, the only thing I have found from across the pond is a Nilfisk 80 .

Moulinex

Nice one boys, they where not bad performers, wonder if its because of the plastic that you dont see many around...certainly sold well, and taller than most other vacs of its time....
