I still think the Morgan Chassis swap was one of the better ones.

The one with the same job on a TVR wasn't bad either :y

They've done some good (and some bad) stuff over the years - still enjoyed watching them, even the US-centric ones (what I wouldn't give for a 1950s US pickup..) and Edd always seemed like someone I'd like to meet and chat to.

His replacement, on the other hand, I have some stories about that probably aren't suitable for an open forum.  I know women who fawn over him, though, so maybe the show will pick up a new following...

It can be quite interesting although I don't watch it religiously.

I watched this programme a few times and was amazed how little profit, if any especially if you factored in Ed's labour, that was made. :o :o

It proved to me there was no real sizeable profit in doing up the average wreck! ::) ::) :D :D

Which just goes to show, that clearly isn't the purpose of the exercise ::) entertainment and inspiration are the only two reasons it existed... That the two of them also clearly enjoyed the process is justification enough for its success.

Be interesting to see what he comes up with next...

To my knowledge, they have never had a Vauxhall of any kind on the show, which is a bit strange.  ???

You would be correct. Also in 14 years they only made £200k out of the cars: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wheeler_Dealers_episodes

The only GM cars I saw was a Saab 93 soft top, be nice if Philip glenister teamed up with ant again.
I found for the love of cars interesting.
