New Wheeler Dealers
« on: 03 January 2018, 15:52:09 »

Whilst I was very fond of old Edd, the format had become a bit stale. I really enjoyed the first episode with Ant and what they did to the RS Turbo almost brought a tear to my eye. A very good start, I hope it continues.

I should add, I meant a tear of nostalgia and happiness, not sadness. I won’t mention which original design they added, but it certainly made if better....much better.

Yes, was a refreshing change. I just hope it doesn't meet the same fate that my mate's Cossie engine did when he tried to run it on American piss petrol. :D

I quite liked the lanky streak of piss who wouldn't fit in most of the cars he botched.

Which channel is the new series on please ? Hopefully not one of Uncle Ruperts.
I didn't mind Ed (although istr Kevin Wood found him to be pig ignorant), but Fatty Brewer quickly gets on my nerves.

He reminds me of an over-enthusiastic puppy looking for a leg to shag.

I didn’t even know Discovery was a sky channel, I thought it might be on freeview. Shows how much notice I take.

Probably about £30,000.......a lot, but probably less than a MK1 Twin cam.

Probably sick of I'm a celebrity......or is it some it other  D-list celeb you speak of?

Ant Anstead, not Ant of Ant 'n Dec ;D ;D

Ant Anstead has a reputation of being every bit as much of a "wheeler dealer" as Brewer, if what I've heard about his kit car dalliance are anything to go by.. I'll say no more as I've no desire to be sued for libel if it's not true ;D

I met Edd at Goodwood last year - seemed like a genuinely nice bloke who had no problem spending a little time with people wanting a photograph with him etc.

Never heard of him.  J or k list celeb perhaps, which makes him about as well known as my Aunt Mabel or the girl with big tits who lives in the next street.
