washing machine help please...

Hi all, having just switched on my washing machine it has decided to dump water all over the floor... After pulling it out the water is coming directly from underneath the machine and not the pipework...This unit is getting quite old so a new one is inevitable but i am keen to find out what the problem is and if its repairable...... Any thoughts of repairs or indeed a recommendation for a new machine ( descent moneysaving price) is greatly appreciated... Paul...

    Hi mr lordi, I'm just wondering if it's where the pump fits, maybe it's worn there.... is it a push-fit pump or has it got a metal clip that's rusted? How old/what make is it?

    The outer drum has probably rusted through, if so not repairable.
    For a good medium spec machine look at Bosch, if pushing the boat out Meile
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
