Seemingly heading Stateside according to the info so may be a little bit more of an american flavour to it: http://wheelerdealers.discoveryuk.com/e ... ntiac-gto/

Hope they come back to blighty as still waiting for them to do a 80's Honda CRX. Although I don't think you would get your money back on it. Just wondering if they have done an Renault 5 GT Turbo yet as well?

That might be a difficult one, wouldn't imagine many survived the build quality was shocking and the rusted at the first sign of water. Fun car though.

Looks like a similar series to Wheeler Dealers on ITV4 tonight from 9pm-10pm: Shed & Buried:

http://www.radiotimes.com/episode/dhhc8 ... -episode-1

Series presented by adventurer and motorcycle fanatic Henry Cole. He travels around the country nosing around people's sheds and garages in the hope of finding some automotive bargains. Today, Henry and his ace mechanic mate Sam Lovegrove are in Surrey where they find Pontiac ambulances, mysterious automotive sculptures, and strangely well preserved motorbikes. Later, in Cornwall, they meet a collector whose cottage is like a transport museum, chock full with memorabilia, penny farthings and lights of all description - watched over by Buster, the guard rabbit.

This week they found a rake with woodworm and a broken lawnmower.

Not as exciting if they looked in my shed.

Have set the Sky+ - hope Henry Cole tones down his voiceover style in it though (or doesn't do voiceover) as I've seen some of the motorcycle stuff he does on random Sky channels and his narration voice is, frankly, disturbing. Sounds like you're listening in on a mucky phone call... :lol:

Been enjoying it as well, must admit that Jodie is better in the ad lib sections than when reading from a script. Loved this weeks episode with all the Porsche content, what a collection !!!
