The Sheriffs Are Coming: 8pm BBC1 Tonight.
Discussion
I don't normally watch this as all the "back story" bits get a bit tedious after a while, but there was nothing else on last night and I was pleased to see that they've dropped the habit of shuttling back and forth between multiple storylines and now just do one at a time. Had to snigger at the shop in the background called "Cost Cuter", though.
Just been watching seires 7 episode 5 where a doctor owed his previous landlord aprox £14k in rent, sheriffs turn up at his new house where they find a SL65 AMG Black edition (with they said a Mclaren engine) on the drive, apparently he used to loan it out for people to use on track but someone didnt raise it up coming of track hit a speed bump and damaged something so it leaks fluid, there was also a small scratch/dent. The doc says he can't pay so they take the car to be sold at auction with them thinking it will easily cover all costs and fees with money left over to be returned to the doctor, end of the program they then state the car was sold at auction but only made £11,300!

£11k for a broken SL65 black. That cant be right, they are going for £185k at Tom Hartley, obviously fully working. I wonder if something major was wrong like the engine was screwed, still though Id of thought even if it was a total wreck it would be worth more than the 11k!
Auctions are like that. It depends who turns up on the day. A specialist car could well frighten off most trade buyers. (I suspect the engine was f***ed).Gassing Station | TV, Film, Video Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
