After going through 2 modern toasters in as many months, appalled with the sheer lack of anything like quality [V] i went on a mission and found this 
The daddy of toasters [^]
Made by a British firm started in 1946, this is the "Auto 6" model made 1958-64 and is fully re-buildable [8D]
Proper metal switch, solid copper wiring, 1/8" thick alloy castings coated in heavy enamel, put together with screws and bolts and a timer that sounds like a Harrison clock [^]
A toaster for life, not just for Christmas
"You,re only supposed to blow the bloody SLIDING doors off"
