Dblock Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I like how Mike just revs its to like 4k and kills the engine for no reason in the escort one. 1 Quote

He is a complete knob but I kind of like that about the show.... It's entertaining and informative for people like me that know bugger all about cars Quote

But he does broaden the appeal of the program. Quote
Ian Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 did anyone see the mark 1 escort. loved that yellow colour, mad. did anyone else notice the kid selling the car at the start though. His favourite word must be 'yep' That kid was "disabled" wasn't he? I was thinking when watching that I've just watched Brewer con a disabled kid into selling his car 1 Quote

It completely makes you involuntary sh1t your self and makes puke come out of your mouth and nostrils at the same time. I went to a cider festival. "NEVER EVER WILL I GO TO ANOTHER ONE". That stuff should come with a government warning. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I'm a cider monkey, well I used to be but I've had to come off the pints while I lose weight. As for this week, I fcuking hate fords, old and new. I know the escort is a much loved car, but I would have had an Alfa 1300 gta junior over the escort any day. 1 Quote
Dblock Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I posted this in another forum a while back. I still think wheeler dealers is great but here it is : 1. Says he has x years experience and then usually over looks very common things. 2. Buys a car with a broken engine. Ed fixes engine from scratch. Mike comes in " so what have you done it looks the same?" 3. Keeps insisting he is a wheeler dealer yet he doesn't haggle very well for parts and is constantly ripped off. 4. Again says he is a wheeler dealer yet always get easily haggled down a few k on every car. 5. Taps the paint with his hand that has a ring on it. 6. Makes a budget, spends it on crap. 7. Says to Ed this car needs a new gearbox but that will only take you 10mins. 8. Whenever he buys a car he takes it to fast round the corner to the garage cause the abs to come on and sometimes smacking the car of the ground. 9. Tells us what will happen at the start, whats to come before the break, whats happened after the break and what has happened at the end. 10. Has really crap ideas like remember that van with the vinyl wrap who the hell would buy that? No one hence why it didn't sell. Quote

spursmaddave Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 I think the lad was just a bit 'local' I agree on all the points about Mike but that's what makes it entertaining, if it was just Ed buying a car and looking at everything knowledgably then it would be pretty dry.... At the end of the day it's all for show, the deals are done off camera and then filmed to make him look like a 'geeza' but as I said it doesn't matter a bit because it's entertaining Quote
ewan221 Posted March 5, 2013 Author Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) Another good episode I thought, good to see the carbon dipping -its a pity RT Biscuit didn't offer his services to Edd and Mike :-) Edited March 5, 2013 by ewan221 Quote
rtbiscuit Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Was good seeing it used in the range rover, I'm in the process of sorting the xkr dash in carbon Quote
WhackyWill Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 My friend got one ..you cannot use it every day in town,,,9 MPG.. actually it spews about the same amount of fuel out the exhaust as it uses...!! :scare: Quote
wizurd Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 how cheap did they get that boxster!? Can't believe the owner sold it for that when the fix for the gearbox was just a filter and oil change especially when he was on a forum. someone would have told him to try that first. gotta remind myself its just entertainment and not real lol Quote
spursmaddave Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Yeah the bloke that left it standing for 4 years because he thought it was knackered and sold it for a £1k must be sick..... Still at least he didn't sell it on TV then he would look a complete tool... oooops Quote

Had actually looked at boxster S's as well before getting the zed. still prefer the zeds looks. liked those wheels in black. Edited March 12, 2013 by wizurd Quote
