Must have seen every wheeler dealers episode about ten times over. Its a running joke in my house, my Mrs doesn't even my moan or comment on it anymore. Its the kind of programme that can just run and run.

That advert is really getting played to death that though to the point where this tune is permanently stuck in my head (I watch the discovery channels way too much!)

Edd is a qualified motor engineer, holds Guinness World Records for fastest shed, sofa and bed.

He makes specialist stunt vehicles for films and also made the upside down double decker cars for Top Gear when they challenged the Aussie Top Gear team.

They're starting the new series with a Fiesta, IIRC. Therefore (as a Fiesta owner) my butt will be firmly plonked on the sofa, and my paw will be clutching a cuppa tea.

Marvellous!!

:D

XR2i I believe.

If he does as good a job as he did to a MK1 on the last season then it should be a joy to behold.

I have to say (and I wonder if I am about to lose my moderator rights here by admitting this...) I havent really seen that many WD's!

I have only seen the odd few episodes but not really watched religiosly.

Yet, I suppose, I havent really seen any of the latest round of Top Gear either... sad. I know...

I love watching it. Even though Mike can get a bit tedious when watching the marathons. Edd, though is the real star of the show - he's encouraged me to at least investigate problems rather than blindly trust a mechanic

Some of their earlier programmes were a bit sketchy and the cars a bit ropey but now they put a lot more money and effort into the vehicles.

Results are pretty stunning.

I like the programme but Brewer is a bit annoying especially the line " I've just bought (leans forward) a *whatever car they're doing*"

Apart from that it's OK ;)

Good show wish they'd get some old 70's Ford's to do up like Mk3/4/5 Cortina and my personal all time favorite car Mk2 2:8i Ghia auto Granada.

Did any of you watch it this week? If so you will have seen the Honda S2000 what they did this week?

I felt pretty sorry for the bloke who sold the car to them for next to nothing and then Mike seemed to have ripped him off when he sold it back to him for more than the asking price..

Anyway good on the bloke as it looks like he is the one having the last laugh.. I was looking around on eBay and came across this..

He also says that a lot more work was done on the car than the show told us about and didn't make as much money as Mike shows at the end of the programme?

Just thought if you watch the programme you would know what I'm on about :d

You are only ripped off if you let yourself be. He chose to pay what he did.
