watching it now. Beautiful job but the Aston leaves me a bit cold I'm afraid.

Nice start to the new series, both Sandra and I were a little unsure of the leather when they first rolled it out but it was an inspired choice and really suited the colour combination.

Glad that they did not go with the Yellow of the Persuaders car, being only 1 of that colour it would have been wrong to replicate it.

Looking forward to the next episode with the Rover 3500 SDi - gives us all an opportunity to spot which Rover trim was used for the earlier Lotus's.

Yeah i really enjoyed it - nice to see them auctioning each car at the end rather than at the special auction show :thumbsup
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

Really enjoyed that. After I watched it, I then watched wheeler dealers that I had recorded, the AMC pacer. What a contrast in cars, restoration standards and most of all, taste! The pacer must be the worst result that Ed China has ever had.

Looking forward to the next episode, (of both shows). :roll:

Watched it on my Xbox last night (quite handy that)
Really enjoyed it, thought the finished result looked superb. Quite amazed how much it went for though.

I did the same and agree on all counts. He totally ruined the pacer and the wrap cost more than the car. What was he thinking?

Suppose it goes with the saying that "you can't polish a turd"

Did like the flocking look of the interior however, although alcantara is so much more appealing
