    Going to ask the obvious question but why a cordless?
    You'll never get as much suction power as you would from a mains version

    Lidl had a wet and dry vac for €40 last week. Fantastic suction.

    In my experience, cordless, while convenient (and decent suction in some models), are a bit awkward. You have the attachment which is about 3-6 inches long, and then the unit itself which is another ~12 inches long. It makes getting into certain areas of the car difficult. It is very handy though, gets about 90% of the job done.

    I have a Dyson V8 that I use around the house and for doing small jobs on my own car. It is a bit cumbersome to get into crevices which is why I recently bought an extension hose and it's perfect.

    Having said that, I only use it to give the mats and driver's footwell a quick hoover every week. For big jobs on customer cars I use my corded Lidl wet and dry vac. As someone said above it has fantastic suction that you just won't get with those cordless dust buster type vaccuums.
