Recommend Me an In-Car Vac?

[veevee]

My car interiors tend to get pretty dirty, I don't want to go to a valet every time, and I'm not always at/near home.

Can anyone recommend a car vac that isn't a glorified backwards hairdryer (ie. one that actually works)? Don't mind shelling out for a decent one, as it'll get plenty of use!

The Dyson hand helds are very good (not cheap mind). I use one and it's been brilliant.

Dyson Handheld - Ive got one and it's fantastic; it's the only handheld I've tried that is a proper vacuum cleaner but smaller. The only slight downside is that it doesn't last too long on one charge but it is just about long enough for a full in-car vacuum - oh and it's certainly not cheap!

A friend was saying how good his Dyson was as he vacuumed out his car at a show. Unfortunately the charge ran out after 5-6 minutes so his car was left with a grubby back carpet.

Absolutely this! really great for the car asa there's no power lead to worry about; it's also way more powerful than something you would plug into the 12V socket in the car. It is also brilliant around the home, a lot less hassle than dragging out your full size vacuum cleaner when you've made a mess. Good to chase the cat with as well.

Dyson DC34 - I have one and it's excellent.

I can think of better ways to chase pussy :-)
