yeah i watch old Mike and Ed when i can too. they have some good tips but its pretty simple stuff so if you're a good mechanic this will seem like playskool. but good show nonetheless, but they are dodgy gits![]()
I watch this show on foxtel when ever I can and looked into if they had an episode with a golf as the project. Its a pretty entertaining backyard mechanics kinda thing if you've never heard or seen it.
If you find yourself with some spare time give this a watch..

i saw them do a MR2 Aw11 up looked great when they finished - not a bad show![]()
I'm always amazed when they pull out the can of spray paint to fix things... clearly the camera hides lots of the imperfections
From a quick squizz there is also a transporter episode and a couple of beetle ones too![]()

Im banned from my mums when they play the mk1 two part bit. Hate mike brewtard and the mk1 build is an ideal example,a lot of it is silly details but for the job they done with some of his hooning about its just annoying...diamond cut P-slots,gti stripes upside down,plonking his fat arse on the bonnet once the car was up for sale....just lots of annoyance .... theres an episode when he has a porsche 928 in and he swaps the 928's 16" BBS RS for a set of 15" teledials that needed a refurb plus gave the guy a hundred notes![]()
"G-T-I. Phree lette's which make all the difference"
Didn't even put the steering wheel back on straight, and they're such tight wads when buying and selling
Yeah i watch wheeler dealers whenever its on foxtel, mike annoys me a bit but he is just a typical salesman. Even though some of the fixes are cheap and nasty, i think thats the point for joe blow at home with not much cash to have a go.
**** i want p-slots!
What the hell ws the go with the brake pads????
"these look like thwy will be fine for another 1,000 miles... maybe more"
Surely that's well and truely into the "replace me now" schedule :S
I did notice them sitting on the car and grimaced a little.
