I think you guys are abit Harsh on the whole wheeler dealers show considering you have all watched it and probably loved watching it, even when the repeats are on!
This is a programme that i enjoy watching; i dont actually care if they are doing things wrong, its just nice to see all these old cars. please name me another car programme that showcases a golf gti mk1. austin mini, audio quatro, porsche 911, porsche 924, 928, cosworth, lancia intergrale?
So your rather watch jezza in some jungle showing everyone what a clown he is and nothing whatsoever to do with cars?

You are right, I do watch it if its on, I think their best was that little fiat 500 they did. However Mike Brewer just seems to know the square root of fuck all about cars, yet he's 'been in the trade' all his life!

I mean, if you pulled the dipstick on a car, and the oil was a bit black, would you rebuild the engine? If it was pissing smoke out the exhaust, would you change the gear linkage?

And have you also noticed how when Edd China fitted the brand new engine to the fiat 500, and when he got the integrale running after being sat without running for years, as soon as it fires he's revving the fucking bollocks off it?

i like it when edd tests a part he has fitted to see if works ok lol as if he has never tested it before the camrea was running and the way a buyer looks at the same part of the car for ages while mike is talking to the camrea anyway i like to watch it even that mike knows fuck all about cars.

the shows are clearly staged, and its very obvious

I liked it on autotrader today, where someone always buys a car after the test drive, that certainly wouldnt happen in the real world!

Afpmsl... I would have paid to have been there! I can't beleive it when he goes the scrap yard and everything he needs is there. No piling through shite with a screwdriver to get your bits, coming out covered in shit. It's all there as new... My mate was just telling me on one of the episodes you can see the car they previously sold in the background.

Look at this thread I found lads. All Ed China lovers.



They are furious because someone outed the show and proved it as a fake because of the number plate change.

mikes done well out of being like he is and has made a fair few quid out of it too.

I have friends in the trade just like him and they make a hell of a lot of money trading, Wheeler dealers is just an idea that kept him on the tele.

Come on he aint that bad, I find him quite funny and as i say i know a lot of car traders like him.

Old school you could say lol.

Does anyone remember the show Deals on Wheels he used to do. Episode that sticks out was an utter cock selling his Renault 19 with williams plastered down the side. He had won max power sound system comps with it. When he took the guy for a test drive he was saying how guys see him driving by with there girlfriends, but don't look at the car because they are jealous. Then he asks the guy if there are many "pigs" on a stretch of road so he can gun it. Proper spastic!

Yeah, just finished watching them now. They sold the car for Ł85 less than the purchase price . He's a cunt lol, didn't need a stero it was a classic car looked after by an enthusiast, and should have been kept as original as possible.

Wheeler Dealers is immense, Brewer is a pure nob!

I remember watching the 928 Porsche one, he went and swapped some 16" Porsche fitment BBS RS which are worth silly money with some Teledials worth Ł100, the lad was over the moon, wonder why...

to be fair, mike brewer knows more than a lot of so called traders! you dont really need to know massive amounts about the car to be a good salesman. a good salesman can sell any heap of croc.....

I remeber when it used to be on discovery H&L it always was followed by the show with the mad nutter building a kitcar! that show was good though.

Kit car crisis?? Where he builds a car to compete in RGB in a shed. THATS a funny show, so funny when he's beavering away in his shed then has to have it lifted over his house once its built and breaks down whilst towing it because he's run out of oil in his Vectra

I like watching Wheeler Dealers but for me most lame episode was the porsche "trackcar".

I like The Garage set in Spain. They had an Audi TT come in overheating and the first thing I said to the ex was "bet the water pump impeller has cracked at the spindle" after they took half the thing apart and replaced a load of bits they finally looked at the water pump.

Love Chop Shop as well. Just makes me laugh my arse off at the abortions created through such bodgery

Wheeler dealers is shocking at times, the god awful landrover in bright fucking yellow, who would buy that? They admited they made a loss on. That red MR2, he went on about a cheap wing he paid next to nothing for, it was so blatantly a brand new wing that had been painted. LOL i FPMSL at the 205 GTi when they cured the head gasket problem by tightening the gear linkages. Divs...
