imo they have turned a page in quality and now do things in the right way with the format of the show and the quality they achieve, very good watch compared to early shows

Hi Steve, It is my favorite car show on tv at the moment!! When you see the state of the cars when they pick them up and the restorations they carry out to transform them to better than new for the owners it's great!!!

I'm gonna watch it tonight. I remember talking to the owner of that Black 3dr cossie they did at FordFair years ago. The owner was saying the quality of the work done to his car wasn't the best.

The TV production company must give them a huge budget to work with. Imagine how much your bill would be if you were getting them to do it for you as a normal restoration job!! As you say Steve they do not cut corners and their attitude is spot on. Another favorite of mine is Bangers and Cash, with Derek at the helm of Mathewsons in Yorkshire where they get a great selection of cars, motorbikes etc to auction off, with plenty of older classics.

I have to record bangers and cash these days as they spend way too much time in the show talking about themselves and not as much on actual cars, so fast forward through their chatter so now its 20min show lol

Yeah, it does seem to have drifted a bit.
You'd think with up to 500 lots at each auction there would be more interesting collections / stories from the sellers.

Sarah (Office Manager) seems to have disappeared and now appears to be Sales Director at Evoke classics running online Auction sales,,

I missed it too. I missed it because at time, I was busy writing an essay assignment by taking help from https://www.topwritersreview.com/reviews/speedypaper/ here. Now, I am all free from my homework and waiting for their next event. Please share the details of their next event whenever it happens. Thanks in advance.
