Trevor, yes it is however its a little diferent now, as you would expect with the change in times. They pulled out of the uk market along time ago to concentrate on their own home market in Australia, which they have out sold any other porty in the country.

I wish I was able to make the show but not this year as the machienes wont be here in time for the show plus the cost of a stand there is unbelievable. However I have pictures and specs on the machiene if your interested.

Spot on Shaun,

Thats where I bought my first machine from ( Stimvac Junior ) which was a good machine in its day.He used to run carpet cleaning courses in his converted garage.

There were 2 other guys that used to help him, Nevile Sunny from Scarbrough,and  another guy from Wakefield.

The answer to that is no. Both Alan and the guy ( cannot remember his name, John something ) from wakefield are both dead.

Nevile Sunny who was a canadian ran his shop as I say from Scarbrough but has retired. I ended up selling/repairing for Stimvac through this guy.

Stimvac in the uk were, I think about the first to bring hwe into the uk started by a an Indian Called Alli would you believe.

Tony I wasnt aware that he was, If I have caused any problems with this then I will appologise, and if he wishes for me not to talk about it then Im sure that will be expressed to me and I will stop, however nothing has been said to me about it.

I think you can discuss cc equipment ,performance ,price etc, as long as you don't over cook the selling part. After all it is a forum and anything new should be talked about, good or bad.
