sorry forgot to mention your options
numatic make different vacuums but they are all excellent
Henry/Henrietta (if you like pink!) for dry use
Charles for wet extraction only/dry use
George for wet spraying and extraction and dry use
George is available with a wet kit only or a wet/dry kit. The wet kit only is a bit cheaper.
I purchased a george for wet and dry use... although this month he will be retired to wet use only as I will be getting a henry too.
this is the cheapest that you will find him in wet only format delivered (apart from maybe the bay), but I did lots of looking about.

http://www.cleanstore.co.uk/products/Productcustom.asp?ID=206my requirement became same day so I got him from a cleaning shop in Guildford, came with a 2 year guarantee. I paid £170 cash.
the handheld extractor tool for car use is brilliant. There is no way that I would have dried my carpets so quickly if it wasnt for George. However... your carpets will not be stone dry... they will still be very slightly damp so you have to be aware of this.
