exactly. if you spend only a day fixing up a car at a garage the labour alone is £300. let alone the weeks ed seems to spend stripping, prepping and rebuilding full respray cars.
i could never make a profit on any car spending the money they do on them. mike buys a lemon and the sell a decent enough car. it cant be done in the real world.

i enjoy watching it though. Ed is a quality mechanic at the back of it. i remember him in max power years ago
