Syphonic Ideal Standard - Great North Road, Finchley

This was somewhere on the Great North Road in Finchley but I can't remember the exact place. It's an Ideal Standard 'Tiara', a close coupled WC which was available as washdown or double trap syphonic. This is the double trap version and it has a Celmac Superb toilet seat (now discontinued). The syphonic action is not as good as it could be on this one.

Thanks go to Richard for model identification.

Can't you see it syphon out at the end?!

You're right, I should have shown the side of it, but it certainly was a double trap from what I saw.

In fact while the siphonic flush is the same as my Uncle's...but his toilet is an Ideal Standard "Brasilia" model, wheras the above is a "Tiara".

We had an Ideal Standard "Tiara" suite (in Green) when I was young but with a Washdown, not Siphonic, pan.

Great find! Great to see the 80s "Ideal Standard" logo, with the underline under "Standard".

My Uncle has one of these exact same toilets in his house, and the dentist I had as a kid had a 1970s version of the above (the 70s batches had a different style cistern and logo).
