Car SOS

[Lincsblokey]

Fuzz was asked about on twitter what had happened with Phil, Apparantly he has had a stroke, but is on the mend, the bmw episode was filmed a year ago.

Do we know when S5 is coming? I think I'm in one episode where they filmed the reveal at Pistons in the Park at Thremhall Park.

Thats a good one (without too much of a spoiler) Fuzz said it's technically the rarest car they have done on SOS.

Watching on catch up now. Very good episode again.
Away from the cars though, I bet his Sister was really hot when she was younger

I was hoping to get a Car SOS boxset for Christmas but the DVDs don't seem to be for sale anywhere, bizarre.

Had the same problem - The only thing Discovery do seem to sell is box sets of 'Chop Shop'

I did find a few sellers of Car SOS in NewZeland but it was too late to ship by then.

That's not a brand new episode though is it?

Did he say only 30 left on the roads?

Its been a while since I saw it but I think it something like that.. very low numbers.

Last one I saw was back in the late 90's

I see one quite often, but then a mate has one that comes to quite a lot of shows that I do, so that doesn't really count.

Pretty good episode, 3D printing of hubcaps looked quite interesting, would be nice to see them close up to see what the detail is like.

I thought she was still pretty hot!

I was going to post about his sister as well, wanted to see more of her than the car!

Tonight's episode is listed as 10 of 10, where they get into a Mustang and drive around visiting some of the projects from the last four series. Does that mean that I've missed the one with the Audi quattro in it, or was that from a different series, or have they chopped and changed the series around for normal TV?

[Cupramax]

The Audi was in series 3, you're watching series 4...

[Steamer]

I missed the Audi too - thought I'd seen all of them.

Loved the reaction to Tim's wind-up over the green paint

[Mr GrimNasty]

Audi owner had sadly passed away, car left to charity, what a gent.

[waynecyclist]

Fuzz in the Westfield, classic

Sad with Quattro owner but a nice touch with leaving it charity

[droopsnoot]

Oh, OK. That's a pity - both that I missed it, and that the owner passed away. I guess the format of the programme makes that a distinct possibility.

As wheeler dealers seems to have disappeared up its own americanised flue i think Car SOS is perfectly placed to take on the mantle of the only british programme that actually does show a restoration (and for a deserving cause too.) Long may it continue.

[droopsnoot]

Looks as if I might not quite have missed the quattro edition - More4 are showing series 2 at the moment, I've just been recording the 911 one.
