Better episode than last week. Not that that would be difficult!
What happened to the Porsche at the end?! Sold, unsold, pushed back into a barn?!

Boggo Mini, reshelled with a Mk3 shell, and with Mk2 Copper badges and a RH tank.
But then they've put black/silver number plate on the back and newer white plate on the front..............WTF
A right old bitsa, Drew kept banging on about originality but the only 1969 items attached to it were probably the engine, gearbox and V5C, and the badges they used were off a Mk1 Cooper!But then they've put black/silver number plate on the back and newer white plate on the front..............WTF
I really want to like it.... But this ste about originally and that Mini was a bag of random Mini bits and a V5.

Mini was nice enough but a complete parts bin. To be fair I didn't hear them refer to it as a cooper but I didn't see the very beginning. It also wasn't cooper money but I'm not really sure why they even looked at it as wasn't an original anything.
928 - everyone knows not to buy unloved 928s. They cost a fortune unless (and probably even if) you know lots about them.
Poor or very risky choices this week, smacks of poor research or just a TV show.

Another fake car programme, that bitsa mini was shocking, nothing cooper about it apart from the badges, rat face knows very little about cars, it had a reshell and one carb. The sell it like the golf for over 10 grand in a fake sale . I liked the mot history too I had already Googled it. The cars seem a death trap all shiny paint and new seats and full of horrors below. Also it turned up to the mini bloke with a missing front number plate, a hole where the rear plate light should be and no mot. How daft do they think we are.

Exactly this.
I did fancy one, but the amount of 928 adverts that said ' just spent 6K at garage' really put me off. Mondeo money but aging supercar parts soon made my decision to leave well alone.
