Starts Monday on Discovery, write up says they open up on the west coast US :thumbsup:

My wife will be over the moon :x

She think Mike Brewer is a total arse.

'Hold out your hand fella , you just bought yourself a XXXXXXX' :D She almost says it before he does now

I think the show is good if not a bit 'manufactured'.

Not seen them do a Z4 yet????
 
Yes I find it a bit contrived and formulaic, I just skip through the MB bits and on to Edd`s bits.. Always find it amusing when he finds a problem with a part, and gets its off the internet or elsewhere, but he has the same clothes on when the new part turns up :D

Just watched the "AMC Pacer " episode............talk about polishing a turd. :cry:

I agree. Unfortunately I think the show is losing its way a bit which is a shame. Used to be great, even if some of the car sales were a little suspect. It was Ed's info I enjoyed the most :driving:

just the way these things go isnt it? now the budget is so good they seem to just automatically put new wheels, new paintjob. I liked the look of that little MGA they did. it was stunning but from the show it seemed like it was a simple job of strip it send it to paint. send all the seats off to be recovered, buy some new wheels and shiney bits. bolt together job done.

the only real interesting bit was the engine seal thingy. ....car did look 1000% after tho :D
 
Enjoyed the MGA and BMW 2002ti but even Mike should have walked away from that Pacer!
 
^ Ha!

I don't know if I love or loathe wheeler dealers. Like seeing the outcome and as it's always been my dream job I just find it interesting.. But Mike grinds my gears, reminiscent of too many cowboys I've dealt with I guess
