I've got a Nilfisk C120 which were on special on Amazon @ £82 the other day. Highly recommended

Gone up a bit but you still get the patio cleaner which is worth £60 on It's own

Avoid the Karcher stuff, the domestic range seems to have gone away from the brass fittings to much less durable plastic ones. I've heard lots of good stuff about the Nilfisk stuff

However, my woolworths special that cost £40 (after my wifes staff discount) 12 years ago is still going strong

my karcher one is fine,it does my car,her car,the patio,brickwork,fence-posts and the moss growing around the shed base without a single problem,it gets knocked over,dragged over stones and slung in the shed

i got mine from here-this is the one i think

Have just rang up and ordered deal 1 with the Magifoam. Will be in the post tonight.

Now all I have to do is convince the wife that it is an "early" Xmas present.

Big thanks for arranging, as it works out at a very good price!

Well, I'm still waiting, APC claim they have delivered the parcel but apart from a card for a failed delivery, nothing has been left

I've been having problems with couriers all week at work. Give APC. A bell Jon to make sure they reschedule the delivery.
