Wheeler Dealers

KRISTLEE · 4th August 2015, 10:57

Hi All,

Do you think we'll ever see a 75 or ZT on Wheeler Dealers? Not just in the background but one actually featured on the show. I enjoy watching the show and always hope that the episode I'm watching is the one lol

Hopefully one day when their values start to increase, no money in them at present with the exception of the V8's I guess

There banger money so not much chance of wheeler dealers doing any up.
Maybe in a few years who knows.

Ed China was asked a while ago, not enough money in them.

I notice in the trailer for the new series, they're driving a P5

Aye if any it will be a V8 that they do.

Although our cars are cheap I don't think making a big profit really comes into it too much as I have seen episodes where they spend a fortune doing a car up and Edd puts in loads of graft only to make a 100quid profit whereas some episodes they don't need to do much and make a decent profit.

To be honest our cars would be ideal...pick one up for peanuts from a scrappy with HGF, sort it out etc and do some Project Drive deletions as modifications and sell it on to make a small profit.

Technically speaking I wouldn't say they make any profit by the time production costs are taken into account and the hours Edd puts in lol

I agree but if our cars struggle to make a £1000 then it will be hard work!
Also lately they seem to have increased their budget which takes them further away from our cars target audience

Ahh that's true I have noticed that they seem to be getting more premium type cars on the show.

To be honest I would buy any 75 or ZT off them whatever they were asking as I think Edd is a fantastic mechanic with an almost OCD when it comes to detail and any car he works on you would know has had everything done lol.

Until 75/ZT's get out of the old banger region then no. Though would be nice to see someday. Still shocked at the bright yellow land rover he came back with.
