"Wheeler Dealers" is a highly entertaining show, and you'll get some commonsense tips along the way. Edd China (the mechanic and designer of the world's fastest street-legal sofa) always presents a thoughtful and concise perspective to Mike Brewer's bluster. The two work well together without the usual reality show BS or drama. It's like they're actually having fun (what a concept!).
It's entertaining how they went off on our American impact bumpers -- "they ruin the lines of the car!" Huh? Well, let's give the lads a break on this one.
The 928 episode is an excellent one -- they put a bunch of work into that car. The 924 epsiode is good as well, especially on how focusing on just a few simple things can bring value and class back to a vehicle. There's a good Jeep CJ episode, too.
Someone should really do an American version of this show, but it would be difficult to find someone who's as clear, competent and effective as Edd China. Hmm... Paging John Walker!
