2013-02-19
"The cheapest Astons in the UK are around \u00a316,000 but Mike decides he wants to spend less. By calling around some dealers, he finds a tired trade-in at a large main dealer. The car has interior water leaks and external oil leaks, it drives in a sloppy way, the engine is blowing, and it feels unloved. The dealer is willing to sell for \u00a313,500 but Mike tries to get him down further. By taking a faded masterpiece, turning back the clock and finishing everything to a very high standards Mike hopes to get absolute top dollar when he sells it on."
2013-02-26
"The Ford Escort Mk1 might not be red and Italian but it\u2019s a performance car icon. Generations of drivers wanted this car, and for many it was their first taste of a quick motor. Mike finds the search for an Escort is hard going \u2013 prices for rust-free original cars are high. The car he finds is a great as a base, and Mike wants to gently customise the Mk 1, to give it a compassionate retro refit, improving the handing and breaking but to also spruce up the face of a much love 70\u2019s classic."
2013-03-05
"Mike buys a clapped out old Land Rover Mk3 for the bargain price of \u00a35k. But Why has Mike chosen such an ugly duckling? It\u2019s been painted matt black with an electric blue bonnet and blue trim on the wheels and interior. But he\u2019s got a plan: re-spray it white, pass it on to Edd to fix-up, then sell it on and double his money."
2013-03-12
"The Boxster is the car that saved Porsche from going out of business when recession hit in the 90s. It may have been called the poor man\u2019s Porsche, but this was unfair - it was 80% Porsche 911, for half the price. Although that \u2018half price\u2019 was still more than most could afford, until Mike tracks down an example with a bargain basement price tag."
2013-03-19
"The Morris Minor is like a little piece of England on four wheels. It\u2019s robust, charming and a very useable classic car. In traveller guise, it is also made partly of wood. The car was designed by Alec Issogonis (who also penned the Mini) and was intended as a medium\/large family car. It was a massive success and sold more than 1,000,000 units \u2013 amazing for a British car. Now the 60s cars are fetching high prices but many are rusty and in poor repair, so finding a good one can be tough. Mike manages to pick one up but then the work begins as Edd strips the car back to nothing but an engine on a bench before restoring a rebuilding it piece by piece."
2013-03-26

2013-09-17
"Mike heads out to Poland to bag one of the most exciting and exclusive cars we've ever done - the Lamborghini Uracco. Prices are rising thanks to the company's 50th anniversary and dwindling supply of these 70s supercars. Mike finds a car that's been kept in a collection for years - without turning a wheel. It doesn't start, it can't drive. But it's in great condition in every other way."
2013-09-24
"Mike's father used to own a custom favourite, the Ford Pop, and Mike has spent long hours during his childhood wishing that he had one. That day has come but Pops are notoriously variable in their quality, often expensive, and usually rare. Mike finds a car with dangerously set-up steering and decided to take a punt on it. For once they forget the idea of profit, and Mike asks Edd to 'go mad' and to make the Pop 'amazing'."
2013-10-01
"This car is one of America's first sportscars and it's amazingly good to drive. This is why the C2 Stingray is one of the world's sports icons. Mike heads to the USA to hunt for a car that's rust free and happens upon an example that's been partly restored...and at a great price. But the C2 is far from being finished and it needs Edd's experienced hands to get it on the road to recovery."
2013-10-08

2013-10-15

But then he hits on the idea of making an Elise that can perform not only on the road, but the track too."
2013-10-17
"Mike's desire to own a classic Cadillac with fins leads him to an early 60s car that is on sale at the equivalent of only \u00a33000. It's a one owner, matching numbers vehicle, with minimal rust and loads of lovely chrome. The bad news is that the wrecked interior, huge dents and mottled green\/grey paint make this car look like it belongs in a horror film."
Season 11 - Wheeler Dealers
2014-03-17
"Mike decides to go back to the 80\u2019s and bags a bargain example of one of his dream cars - but there\u2019s only \u00a31000 to spend on repairs or the profit\u2019s at risk. Edd isn\u2019t convinced the XR2 deserves all the praise, but comes up with cheap and innovative solutions to add value. Mike finds a clever way to get Edd all the rare parts he needs and pulls out all the stops to prove the Fiesta is the hot hatch that started a fast Ford revolution."
2014-03-24
"The last of the air-cooled legends. Mike goes in search of what many fans consider to be the last truly great Porsche. What he finds is the cheapest, tattiest 993 in the country. Mike however, can see a mechanically sound motor and potential profit lurking beneath seventeen years of muck and grime. Edd sets to work on a rescue mission to restore the car\u2019s racing pedigree. It\u2019s unloved and underpowered but after Edd lavishes some care and attention on the car, will the smart engine fixes and custom handling package spell profit on a Porsche that is still major money?"
2014-03-31
"With its legendary mix of unique technology and awesome performance, Mazda\u2019s coupe is unlike any other. Mike finds one that appears to have nothing wrong with it and challenges Edd to make a good car even better. But these cars are complex and unforgiving. So while Edd handles with care, Mike sorts out some stylish mods to make the RX7\u2019s looks match its performance."
2014-04-07
"Mike finds a fifty-six year old Citro\u00ebn 2CV, retired in the sunny south of France. It\u2019s a real people\u2019s car with bags of charm. With cheeky bug-eyed headlights and rare suicide doors, the 2CV is one of the most recognisable cars ever designed and renowned, over its forty-two year production cycle, for its stark simplicity. Almost every aspect of this quirky car requires attention; Edd strips it back to bare bones to breathe new life back into the smoky old engine. A fresh paint job and interior will help to secure the car\u2019s future for another fifty years but can Mike get top dollar for a car with no frills?"
2014-04-14
"Mike buys a supercar from the super saver menu. An Italian thoroughbred for under \u00a310k. But supercars mean super bills. Mike\u2019s reports of wayward handling and a hair-trigger throttle could lead to either bankruptcy or a very nasty accident. Some of Edd\u2019s smart solutions could help to keep the budget under control but will it be enough to tame this technology packed, turbocharged V8? Techy tyres help get the luxury GT powerhouse back on track and an overhauled air-conditioning system restores some Italian flair."
2014-04-21
"It\u2019s time for the boys to tackle one of the meanest muscle cars around. But finding the right one won\u2019t be easy as the Camaro is already a cult classic. Mike tracks down a part-finished restoration in California with its fair share of problems. Edd has his work cut out with loads of missing parts to find and fit. With all this time and effort, is there still a profit on the cards?"
2014-04-28
"Mike takes the ultimate plunge and invests in a car - and a boat, all in one. It\u2019s the Amphicar, an amphibious vehicle that Edd has been dreaming of for years. But when he peels back the layers and discovers the car\u2019s problems are serious, will he find himself in deep water and rinse away all the profit? This challenge truly puts Mike and Edd\u2019s skills to the test and could see them literally sink or swim!"
2014-09-01

2014-09-22
"Mike travels to Greenville, South Carolina, America and buys an all-black, empty, 1967 13-window Volkswagon Type 2 Deluxe.

2014-09-29

2015-03-23
"The team knows a rust-free GTO would be a great car to kick off the new U.S. workshop. But these cars are rare, and Mike has to travel all the way to Chicago \u2013 almost 2,000 miles \u2013 to find one. When he does, he discovers this great time-warp muscle car isn\u2019t all it seems. Edd discovers it hides some gremlins, which will make it hard to sell in hot California. Mike sets them a challenge, to make a $10,000 profit. But the market isn\u2019t always stable \u2013 will they manage?"
2015-03-30
"A pickup truck is a stateside icon and Mike is keen to get into the booming classic truck market. He manages to find a 1950\u2019s F1, which is an unfinished project. The bodywork has already been stripped of paint and this patina gives Mike an idea \u2013 give this down-at-heel Ford a vintage rusted look. Drawing inspiration from this creative vision, Edd creates a paint scheme based on a \u2018sandstorm in the desert,\u2019 brands the windows with molten steel and builds a high-spec flathead V8 to blast it down the road. But will this eccentric truck with its unique Wheeler Dealers style find a buyer willing to pay a premium?"
2015-04-06
"Everyone has heard of the high-selling MGB but the car that came before it \u2013 the MGA \u2013 is the one Mike wants to track down for the U.S. workshop. Why? Because it looks great, goes around corners well, and sells for high prices. When Mike tracks down a California car for restoration he thinks it will be easy for Edd \u2013 just a few cosmetic jobs. But this isn\u2019t the way Edd sees things and the result will surprise some hardcore MG fans. To make matters worse, he refuses to stick to Mike\u2019s low budget. Sparks will fly!"
2015-04-13
"The BMW 2002tii was better handling and more driver-focused than its contemporaries back in the early 1970s, attributes that have made it a desirable classic car today. Trouble is good ones are starting to go for big money. To stay in budget Mike has to take a real punt on a car that hasn\u2019t been started for 17 years. With its fiendishly complicated mechanical fuel injection system and an engine that hasn\u2019t run for nearly two decades, will Edd be able to bring this long dormant baby BMW back to life?"
2015-04-20
"Perhaps the Americas\u2019 biggest automotive joke, the AMC Pacer has long topped lists of the world\u2019s worst cars. But Mike feels this neglected 1970\u2019s hatchback is ready for classic status and he enlists Edd to help make this car cool again. Edd comes up with a visual transformation which he thinks will address the failures of the original styling and attract a 21st Century buyer. But with a limited budget and some very off-the-wall ideas will this gamble land them a big profit or major loss?"
2015-04-27
"The Datsun 240Z was Japan\u2019s answer the Britain\u2019s MGB GT, only better. Trouble is they rusted and today cars in good condition with manual gearboxes are going for a fortune. The only rust-free car Mike can find in his budget is an automatic with a wheezing engine. Ever the optimist, Mike buys it anyway, hoping to turn it into a money-spinner by getting Edd to spice up the engine and swap the sluggish auto for a manual transmission \u2013 but can Edd deliver and still leave room for a profit?"
2015-05-04
"The Volkswagen Thing was the result of the German Army\u2019s late 60\u2019s requirement for a lightweight military vehicle. VW came up with a utilitarian convertible looking like an upturned bath on wheels, but optimistic marketing men realised they could sell it to the general public, as a fun, four-seat beach buggy. Sadly, most of them rusted away, so it\u2019s hard to find one that\u2019s solid and original today. Mike manages to pry one away from the hands of a collector \u2013 but forced to dig deep for the purchase \u2013 there isn\u2019t much left in the kitty for Edd to deal with an engine that keeps stalling, lethal brakes and an uninviting interior with no heater and torturous seats. Can they flip this Thing around?"
2015-05-11
"This fabulous fifties coupe has more than great styling on its side because under the bonnet is one of the first ever Hemi, a legendary V8 engine which kick-started the U.S. car makers\u2019 muscle car wars. Our car has had a bad custom job, so Mike and Edd set about addressing the damage to give this stunning cruiser back some class. The engine is pulled out and given a once over, the exterior is transformed with some clever touches and eventually this car is ready once again to proudly cruise to the diner for a milkshake!"

So he decides to combine his two loves and build a Ford rally car, buying a Mk2 Escort project car which has already had lots of money spent on it.\n\nEdd thinks it\u2019s got potential, but says it needs thousands more spending on it before it\u2019ll be safe enough for a rally stage. Mike is excited, but Edd is worried about the risk of zero profit. Neither of them are legally able to drive a rally circuit either \u2013 immediate action is needed!"
