Mike has just said on the Facebook page that he's on his way back from Italy in one to Eds workshop.

Should be interesting.

They do when they ship them from America. (Although only the shipping costs)

I'm not sure if he's driving it or trailering though!

 I love this show...

   Where else can you pick up a cheap classic for 1k, spend 1k on parts plus about 1.5k in labour then sell it on for 1.4k thus making a healthy profit?

Yeah.  I'm still trying to work that out, too.  Doesn't seem to work for my business!

People always moan that they don't include labour cost. It's all about you doing it at home! I don't charge myself when working in the evening!

I "charge myself" at £10 an hour for DIY/home stuff so that I can use it to justify buying or making something etc :lol:

It doesn't look like it needs anything doing to it. How are they going to pretend to make money from it?

I think wheeler dealers use the same person that done the green party manifesto.
