The nimrod had an 8-slice dualit type toaster - so big it took up half the galley table.
It is my understanding that the crews asked for a 4 slice toaster instead - mostly to save some space.
Therefore the 8 slice monster was withdrawn, and some time later the new 4 slicer was issued -
It was the 8 slice model with a blanking plate welded over 4 slots...
