thought id give the wagon a quick hoover today but when i plugged HENRY in he coughed and pluttered and wouldnt work :cry:  :cry:  :cry: i knew this day would come eventualy as he has done alot of hours sucking sh!te out of customers cars and my own so he's worked very very hard for me :tongue:

took him apart and all seems normal apart from the carbon motor brushes that apear to have had there day :rolleyes: im hopeing that i can get the brushes replaced saving me having to buy another unit, if anyone knows if this is possible to do then post up please :wink:

RIP Henry  :sad:

I might get a Henry myself, either that or I'm toying with the idea of one of them handheld dyson jobbies.

Just for the ease of use, pick up and go. and even for the days when im not detailing and i notice a few crumbs and stones etc i can zap em without getting a full sized hoover out.

I'm thinking a portable handheld will do the job quicker and easier than getting a vacume out ?
