does that mean all the old ones will be back up? Because soon after I started going through them, they were taken off YouTube, presumably by
Discovery.

Cant wait, we made £100 quid profit but it took Ed 3 solid weeks of sweating his cahonies off to do it, and as for the spray guy who charges £3000 for
a blow over, he must be laughing all the way to the bank.
Still a good show though.
Cheers,
Bob

yeah, for a wheeler dealer, he isn't exactly swimming in it at the end of these restoration jobs. Interesting though. Not sure if it encourages
me, or puts me off.

They've never been off the dicovery channels, watched the one last night where he does up a suzuki 4x4 into a mini monster truck - lol only to
have it fail the MOT with big rusty holes - though Ed would have noticed that

And the worlds worst case of bump steer!
Of course the show isnt about them making money, its about making a show! The profit comes from discovery, not from selling cars!

I certainly wouldn't buy a used car off them! Makes me smile when Ed carries out some bodywork repairs lovingly such as the e-type Jag they did
once, and puts back a nicely restored replacement panel on top of some pretty obvious rust and crud!! Top Job 
Still watch the show though 
It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

in the ad he says it got a brand new engine in it when they got it, maybe it failed emissions and they didn't want to spoil the show!

AC Cobra Mk3 by Gardner Douglas
This truly fabulous car was built in 2001 and then never driven. It was then taken over by the guys on Wheeler Dealers to be given a full overhaul
which included a brand new Chevy V8, wheels, running gear and interior. It has just been re-tested with IVA and now carries a 12 plate. The car is
completed and runs and drives superbly having only covered 1000 miles. This car has been a main feature on the current Wheeler Dealers and has been
driven by both Mike Brewer and Edd China and if you are a fan of the show you know that no expense is spared and the quality of work is second to
none. If you know your Cobra’s then you know the one to go for is a Gardner Douglas and with the additional work from the Wheeler Dealer team this is
one not to be missed. The stats are: Brand new out of the crate 5.7ltr Chevy engine with 350BHP shipped in from America. Edlebrook inlet manifold and
Carburettor. Tremec gearbox. Williams 3 point harness Full leather interior Wilton carpets Twin roll hoop Kenlow twin fans Jag running gear, fully
shot blasted, fully refurbished and powder coated. Proflex polly bushes Smiths gauges Vortex stainless steel exhausts Stainless steel fuel tank Image
3 piece split rim alloys. Plus much more!!!! The car is available for a viewing at any time and must be driven as you won’t be disappointed.
Miles: 1000
Price: £28995
Finance information: Baytree Cars offer a comprehensive range of finance solutions for this vehicle to meet the needs of both the private individual
and business customer.
Anything With Tits or Wheels Will cost you MONEY!!

Just watched it. I must have missed the bit where they put the brand new engine in. Why spend £1200 on an exhaust when all they needed to do was put
a few cats in? wheeler dealers is such a crock of shite but I have to watch them.

Are you sure the WD crew put the new V8 in it? When I watched the show Ed only changed the jetting in the carbs to get the emissions down a bit. Then
they put the new exhaust system with cats on to bring the emissions down enough for it to pass IVA and even then it was a close thing.
The previous owner to the WD crew was the one who put the Chevy in it.

It is tv you know! I can see it failing even after they did the stuff, so got a new engine for it, and if anyone were to know it would be the guy
who is sitting in it right now!
Oh and he managed to get a 12 plate so I wouldn't be surprised if it was a new engine

ok have found out why they actually put a new engine in it.
Mike brewer blew the engine up doing the wheel spinning scenes so they had to fit a new engine :-)

If it's a new engine would it have carbs?
