I bought our Dyson V6 and Dyson Car+Boat at Costco and both came with the flexible hose attachment. The attachment works well and is made a lot better than some flexible hoses of the smaller shop vacs. The goofy thing is, even though the vacuums look a like, none of the attachments work with the other vacuum. V6 attachments only work with the V6 and the Car+Boat attachments only works with the Car+Boat - they were not interchangeable....
