DC03 Absoloute plus refurb....
« on: August 11, 2017, 03:20:43 pm »
Hi guys,just thought Id show you my latest turn around.This dc03 belongs to a customer of mine,she bought a dc07 off me a few weeks ago and mentioned she had 2 extra cleaners,his dc03 and a Numatic George (shes gonna bring him in when she clears her garage out,will post about it when i get it).The problem with this one was that it lost suck,typical affair,blocked  filters,tubes.The internal clear ducting had also smashed.She said she prefers the dc03 over the 07,god knows why.The only thing better about the 03 is the weight and how slim it is.I did infact have a dc03 the exact same,a few years back but sold it stupidly,wish I kept it.

Enough rambling,heres a pic ...

I just recently saw a pic similar to this on Instagram - think his name was numatic_collector - always liked DC03s - never owned one though
