This is one of my lateset finds. Unfortunately, bigger job than first thought. Have found replacement outer tub, fitting new bearings and see what else we need |

Hi there Bjorn Lovely machines you have there, thanks for sharing. I assume it's the other Rob who wanted the S118 as I have the later version. It really does look nice though. I hope Paul and Rob can have it! All the best Rob PS here is the advert for a similar Zanni. I take it the S118 was the 520 spin version? |

Welcome to the group! Fantastic machines there! Some real classics I must say. Well If I may just step in and be mega cheeky I will take those Hoovers off you If I may once I have spoken to Paul? I guess we will have to arrange postage on them but we defo will have them off you - they are both missing links in our Hoover Turbopower collection! My aunty Carol had the grey Turbo 2 1994 - 1998 and the cream TP is a missing link in the other half. Let me know what you want for them in an email and how much to post to us. Once again welcome to the club. Rob and PAul |

Hi Paul / Bjorn I think we are all desperate for one of these LOL! At the very least pics and perhaps a vid would be great one day. My Nan's best friend next door neighbour had the square door above. It used to really take off on spin and would do lots of short bursts. We used to drink tea in her kitchen and I couldn't keep my eyes off it! Apparently the timer went and it was scrapped sometime in the early 90s. It was bought in 1979, probably the last of the square door Creda's. Rob |

Hi Bjorn, lovely classic collection you have there!!! those Zanussis where mega popular, but many people where quite dissapointed with the spin speed after using twinnys!!! I remember using one when i homesat a friends house and the washing seemed a lot wetter than coming out of Mums servis 850rpm at the time!!! Are you a service engineer or do you work in a repair shop etc?? personally am always on the lookout for brown Servis models purple Hotpoints and anything else obsqure!! (which is probably a lot for this hobby) let us know where you are, my appliance buddy from brum is interested in your stuff, both washers n vacs, he`d love to pop along etc?? RobM, Ohhh Trident, blast from the past, that takes me back, thats where I started out in electricals, fabulous days where they, all the big names, plug in demos, in store demonstrators (you know the sort Max Factor Faces, American Tan Tights & Killer Heels!!! marvelous) all out for the sale!!! Bjorn, am needing a dryer for this creda electra, was it similar to this that went by the by?? Congrats on the Hoover dryer, that one missed me by, which is one I`ve hunted for a while now!!! cheers, Mike |

Oh Mike I am soooo envious! What a lovely machine. I'm so pleased one of these have survived. If you get a chance to take anymore pics (especially the drum) or indeed a video that would be great! However, I know how time consuming it can be, so no worries if you can't! I hope you are well and I watched and enjoyed very much that documentary on youtube. Take care Rob Here is the Creda Brochure from the 70s |
