Oh man, Rolls Royces are so horrible, haha

My first thought was, they're gonna regret this!

[Chris Type R]

They managed to hide the love for the roller quite well.

[Killer2005]

Just me who loved the Rolls then?

[wolfracesonic]

Watched, enjoyed, will watch again, but the 'country house' skit? Liked the guy who was surprised he wasn't getting a genuine AC Cobra for $35,000, he must have really done some research

[P-Jay]

I've watched about 15 mins of the Rolls episode so far over breakfast this morning - my first thought - 'oh no, all that craftsmanship, the hand polished windscreens, the fancy barbed wire free leather they'll never appreciate all that' - then I saw them pull off the Halfords style wheel covers and I remembered in actual fact they're a bit crap really - I look forward to them putting on air ride and hopefully a big blown lump of Detroit iron under the 'hood'.

Good episode last night, back to the original format of buying, fixing and putting through auction with no reserve. And only 1 mention of the fking bar and grill!!

[MG CHRIS]

Enjoyed it to and when they put the roof in backwards was rolling on the floor laughing also the bit about converting to air bag then finding out the brakes are linked into the old suspension system or something like that which they had removed so had no brakes.
Then again looking at the system there is a fking load of brake pipes.

Good episode last night. Loved the Ford Falcon race car, and the Chevy Truck.

Watching this show and seeing the cars make me wish I lived in the US. Something about older American cars from the 60's, 70's which have the edge over UK cars of the same era.

I'd like something like that Falcon, or even the Trans Am, but they're just too big for UK roads. (to me anyway) I'd love to drive coast to coast in the US too, but I doubt that cool muscle cars are as cheap as I'd need them to be.

Nonsense. My '57 Chevy is the same size as my Volvo V70, fits in a single parking space no problem. The Falcon is an even smaller car.

I have the QA1 suspension set up same as Aaron fitted to his Falcon, along with rack and pinion steering and some big anti roll bars. Car is very chuckable now and not at all boat like

[Henry Fiddleton]

Season 5, on show in the US, is just as good.

Basic formula and format still.

Aron race cars is awesome, and the following episode with the Boss 9, is just as cool.

Keep up the good work.

I'd have it in a different colour, but was still bloody nice.

THere is another US show on, Extreme Car Hoarders, I think it is called, that I caught on Monday. In that, one of the partners admitted that it is starting to become very difficult to pick up old unloved cars to make over for a song, presumably because of TV programmes like Fast n Loud, Counting Cars etc.

I would have left it looking a bit ratty, just a coat of laquer would have done it.

Lovely car, first one in a few weeks I would have loved to own.

[ch427]

Loved the car but they probably could have kept the original engine and wheels.

Here she is at the optima street car thing, chasing an Amazon.

I know but I don't think I could justify the petrol costs. Plus cruising around in the states is slightly different to being stuck on the M25 lol
