Mike brewer is great

[mowgli]

[therealnovaboy]

He's a lad

[Southie]

He's a tit

Edited for truths.

[raf24]

He is a fanny

[therealnovaboy]

I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.

In fact I'd probably put it out with a screwdriver.

[brainsnova]

He does nowt in wheeler dealers lol

[meritlover]

He does nowt in wheeler dealers lol
he does so!
he's the eye-candy

[rubachuk]

I'm waiting to see how he's going to get a Ferarri 458 Italia for £30,000...... or could there be a small amount of artistic licence in the advertisements?

its an MR2 with a bodykit.

[mowgli]

so £2k of car + £5k of grp + £2k of paint = £1k pile of shyte that is pretty much unsellable...

[meritlover]

its an MR2 with a bodykit.

its probably not, but Mike wouldn't know the difference.

[rubachuk]

POSSIBLE SPOILER




Watched this weeks episode last night and what a waste of time. Why when you've got $12k in the kitty do you fanny about buying ****ters for $2-3k and make $2-300 when you could spunk the $12k and make $2-3k?

And having to refund the guy for false advertising lol amateur hour

[turbojolt]

the only thing that's annoying me about the show is him constantly working the money out in dollars :tard:

I don't know why but it gets on my moobs

because he did exactly the same show a few years back in england, and this one is for america....

[turbojolt]

answering questions that haven't been asked, that's a new one

[mowgli]

i'm typing it slowly so you understand it...

you didn't know why he was working it out into dollars

the reason for this is that he sold the series format to discovery/quest/whoever in the us after having done the original series in england where he traded up from nowt to a new car.....so he was working it out into dollars because the show is for the american market & the americans use dollars

thus its a reasonable explanation why it gets on your moobs...

[turbojolt]

:tard:

[rubachuk]

I assumed it was because he was going to finish the series in America, can get a lot of car for not too much money....compared to the UK anyway.

Correct though it is unbelievably annoying.

well topgear were proven wrong in the us special and they struggled to find any cheep car worth owning, the 2nd had car market is probably tougher over there as there is a car dealership on near enougb every corner lol

According to Mike Brewer.

They're dealing in US dollars as he's trading all over the world, and keeping everything in Dollars makes it easier to compare how much he's spending.
He hates it too, but that's what he's been told to do by Discovery.

Did he? What was that called?

[turbojolt]

where did you find that out then?

Hi All, yes I've seen all the comments made about the dollar stuff in Trading Up...please...it's not my FAULT. Discovery have made this as a global show to play out in every territory and they consider the $ to be a global currency. I converted from £'s every time in the show yet a lot of you somehow didn't hear that! Anyway next week I'm in Sweden and I have to convert Krona into $, I bet then you understand. I expect a lot of comments but I can't do anything about it. All I try to do its to give you guys entertaining TV and I work really hard 7 days a week at it. Discovery call the shots.

and yes i did watch it


ps. mike did an awesome documentary about a chinook helicopter [bravo november] it basically single handedly won the falklands war, and is still in service... jack has probably had to play with its software at some point...my point is that given a decent subject, the man can produce a good tv show

[DAVIDKEDENS]

Hahaha! I can't watch Wheeler Dealers without swearing and wanting to hook the tele... He's an ****!

Also I hate it when he comes in saying me & Edd have put in all the effort bla bla bla.. NO! Edd did. You sat on your **** and probably got most of the parts posted apart from the one that's filmed.
