New series of Wheeler Dealers....
Discussion
On one show they will be doing a merc that is uk registered but in another country, France I think, they get it back to find it needs a new common rail high pressure pump.
Only reason I know is because they came to my work(euro car parts) to buy the part, mike was due to film in our shop but they changed plan to go and film at the main warehouse in tamworth.

Mike is just a showman Ed's the one who is the real star!williamp said:
fantastic, love this show. I hope they have a bigger budget and do some really good cars- Chimera, 911, maybe even DB7, Maserati, 80s Merc etc
...
What a good idea....
I know its nice of them to rescue old cars from the scrap yard (and thats how I view it).
But it would be different for them to do a series where EVERYTHING is taken into account and then see if a profit is made at the end.

I quite like Wheeler Dealers, so I am looking forward to this.

watching the old Merc Cosworth one on Discovery turbo as we speak
I watched that the other day, it was quite interesting. I was pretty horrified when he ripped the Blaupunkt cassette out though. Thought the idea was to keep it original?!!Coupe_Daz said:

Excellent. Queue loads of shouting from Mike about blowing the budget.Only reason I know is because they came to my work(euro car parts) to buy the part, mike was due to film in our shop but they changed plan to go and film at the main warehouse in tamworth.

Yes, I thought replacing the stereo was a rather strange thing to do too, and the replacement looked awful, it didn't suit the car at all. A waste of £200.y2blade said:

LOL. Cue him going "Nah I know its five hundred quid mate, but, can I give ya 200 cash?" Or the best, when they had the 928 with the gold rims that the tyre seller just happened to be after so they could swap.bass2rez said:

Still find it a interesting program but only because of Ed, the rest of the time i'm sat there thinking FFS mike just shut up an lets hear more from Ed

Edd is the star of the show no doubt. I feel sorry for Paul as well, because he's right at the bottom of the wheeler dealers food chain. He never even gets to say anything
