If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

I will still watch Wheeler Dealers, that is if I can handle the "High Energy" music and sound effects which detract, not thrill or improve the show in any way. Ant seems a nice chap but the truncated mechanical aspects which added so much to the show are gone; what a terrible shame.I have watched the program since its introduction into the U.S. market and it has certainly changed; the changes were an improvement until last season when something wasn't "Clicking" in the formula.When buying a new "Business", in this case a TV program with a proved formula, the last thing to do is make changes to components which have made the entity an asset. What a shame.A unique asset has been made a run of the mill "Show".Mr. Brewer, as you are the remaining component of the original program you must accept the responsibility for the result.Sometimes the best thing to do rather than compromise is "Let it Go".

Don't know if this a spoiler or not. Without Ed it just isn't the same show. The new guy Ant was OK but it just wasn't the same show. To me Ed was the biggest part with his look in the camera I'm telling you this now pay attention people. Well maybe I'll watch again in a few months, maybe Ed will be back.

As much as I like the program, I really cannot believe that Mike Brewer is a dealer. I was shocked as hell to find out he has a really big dealership!!Don't get me wrong, I really like watching the program, but overtime I do I think, "how the hell is this guy a dealer??". Here's a typical example:He buy's an Aston Martin for £12,500. He gets the poor mechanic, who never seems to get paid for doing ALL the work, to fix up the car. Im sorry but every mechanic I have ever been to charges good money to repair, especially good ones as this guy seems to be. They spend just under £2000 on parts to get the car running again bringing the total to £14,468. The mechanic then asks Mike, who has just done his "lovely bubbly I'm Dell Boy" impression after seeing the car, "How much do you think we'll get?". To which Mike Brewer say's; "I fink we'll get around £15,000 wiv a bit 'o' luck".WTF????!!!! I'm sorry, but he really has to be the worse f*****g dealer that ever lived!!! If I was the mechanic I would be gripping him by the throat saying, "So I've worked a f*****g week, got covered in dirt and oil, had to pay all my bills to run a garage and you think that we might get a grand total of £32 profit!!!!.... BETWEEN US!!!!". I would then repeatedly smash him about the head with a spanner to try and knock some brains into him!!!Surely I can't be the only one that thinks this??? In-fact, NO, everyone I know that has seen it has said the same thing. I haven't got a problem with either of these guys, in-fact, I actually really enjoy watching the show, albeit to watch the pathetic format of it, but you do get a good inside in what and what not to look for when buying second hand cars.... Sometimes!! And the mechanic give really handy tips. However, I really think it should be named something else???Something on the lines of:Fix it for free, Charity repairs, Profits don't matter Seriously NOT dealers Dealers... NOT!! No clue but we'll make it work Rich guys who like to fix cars for no profitIts obviously great television because I do watch it when its on and it has fantastic ratings. I really do wonder how many people take it seriously? Or is it maybe a ploy by Mike to get people to think; "God he's sh*t at dealing cars - i'll go to his dealership, I know i'll get a bargain as he's f***king clueless!!". OMG, it make so much sense now, that's exactly what the cheeky chappy has up his sleeve. Anyway, there's my £32 quids worth. If Im ever after a cheap Aston I'll give him a bell. TC

It's a real car restoration show without the unwanted side story lines. Minus Mike's Cockney accent during negotiations, Edd steals the show. My only negative comment would be how low they sell the cars. A beautifully restored BMW M3 for 6 thousand pounds? Not sure if there is a difference in the UK and the U.S. concerning used cars, but that was a steal. That car would have sold easily over $25k here. For a car restorer, I like the way Edd doesn't try to "shiny up parts," during the restoration. By far the restoration car show on TV. I only hope they continue this series as it is gaining popularity over here. This is what car shows should be like, the soap opera stuff mixed in with most other car programs are basically a nuisance. Cheers!
