Ed China, Wheeler Dealers.
Discussion
One of the things I like about it is that they buy quite a few old cars that either I've owned or would still quite like to own. The best bit is that they are all in most peoples financial reach and (allowing for the fact it's TV) it makes it seem more real, and more fun!
No idea why this TV prog winds some people up so much

I'm in the US and i stumbled upon this show and I love it. Sure they don't make much off the cars and would loose money if ed's labor costs were included but they do a quality repair and its neat to see the tricks
Can you understand Brewer? " 'old yer 'and ahhhht, you've just got yerself a motor "
I think its great fun stuff, nothing too serious. Plus Ed is a really nice chap & very happy to get his hands dirty, I did a few TV things with him in the past for Discovery.
Funny enough Ed used to be friends with my brother back in the early Beetle days (early 80's I guess)
Mr Brewer is all too keen to buy the pups though

I quite enjoy it. Its only short and easy to watch. I like the way they play 2 back to back on Discovery Turbo.
The prices always shock me. They buy a lot of stuff that is really going up in value. The 944 turbo they picked up for about 3k, they are more like 7-8k now. I think that episode was only a couple of years old as well!!

Is a "catalogue model" for HIGH & MIGHTY clothing too (or was)
Quite often see High & Mighty showing up on the end credits so entirely possible. Is a "catalogue model" for HIGH & MIGHTY clothing too (or was)
Wheeler Dealers (Ed Chima more to the point) was a large part of the reason I bought the old G1 Insight, it inspired me to actually get on & do it.
I'm pretty good mechanically & so I thought "I fancy a go at that" & thus far it's been great fun, to the point where when it's finished & I'm driving it I'll look for another snotter to bring back to life.
Mike Brewer however is a weapons grade cock.
