mad: Rant over................. for now
Every time i watch it Mike Brewer makes my p**s boil, if he turned up if i was selling a car i would tell him to bu*g*r off the way he goes on and
then has the nerve when people try and kock him down.mad:
Rant over................. for now
owld out yer hand, Ive always wanted one of these. Thing is it is tv gold as bad as mike is.
I actually quite like him - especially after seeing the programmes he made in Afghanistan.
I think, just like the Top Gear lot, he has become his own character over the years on Wheeler Dealers and the wide boy image is extra hammed up
(though he does remind me of an old Hale and Pace sketch with two cockneys who always wore massive watches and gold gloves everywhere they went 
)
By all accounts Ed China is quite a boffin.I am sure he has a speed record for a sofa or chair with an engine in it.
Nobody has mentioned yet that he knows two shades of b*gger all about cars !
He may have sold them, but that's where it ends.
And he should know by now that there is a 'd' in Landrover !!

love watching it for the nostalgia but.................. none of the costs ever take into Eds labour costs! thats fine cos if Ed (legend) wants to pop
round the lockup and help me this weekend I'll be more than happy!
Try Overhaulin' and check Chip Foose instead!!!
I have met Edd a few times, he's a genuinely nice guy and he's always got time to speak to people.
Paul (the mechanic on wheeler dealers) is also very friendly and has a rather sharp wit
I have never met Mike but I hear he is nothing like his persona on the box and he loves RC helicopters so he gets my vote, also he was very good on
that Afghanistan program
Wheeler dealers is a TV program and involves a lot magic, but it’s better than watching robson green torturing fish that’s for sure
I was on the same uni degree course as Ed and he was building mad cars back then too!
Top chap!
Actually if you remember the program where they did the Lotus Elan and they took it up the hill at Gurston Down, Mike Brewer looks a handy driver
he was at the last exeter show. turned up in a motorised bed in the rain legend
