Are Brewer & China at it again?


Recommended Posts

Looks that way - The email address seems to have been associated with flogging a few other Wheeler Dealers cars in the past.

 

Top marks to those lot for producing a bloody good telly program. OK, it's not "A car is born", but it's an enjoyable watch, every time.

If that's all I had to do in exchange for £16k of renner alpine, I'd do it. I'd even let them film it if they filled it up with petrol.

I'm sorry for what I've done to this thread :cry:

I wonder if they let Ed rattlecan the wing on this, like he did on that capri :lol:

Did you seem him rattlecanning the parcel shelf on the Golf (?). GR8 4 passin out from celly fumes.

I have done this, it works quite well. Surprisingly hardwearing, too. It did pong once the sun hit it a few times, but after a few days it was fine.

that Alpine is lovely but it is NOT AUTOSHITE!!!

 

back to topic - anyone got a Sherpa? :D

Posted

It is French though, so by definition it must be a bit shite.

 

And it does have the same PRV V6 engine hanging out of its arse as the Delorean, which is also sort of shite.

Posted

I love that Alpine, though the price does sadly suggest that it ain't autoshite!

 

For no better reason than I found this pic the other day, here's a shot of Mike Brewer telling the world how good 2CVs are. With my 2CV.

Yes, I am lurking just behind the car, with Mark Evans and a mate of mine.

 

EDIT - Peter, please note that there is an Original Tin placard in the rearmost side window. :wink:

I love these and even love the later ones too.

 

However I can see myself sitting in this interior:

but not this one:

Seems good value too this compared to this one who's advert is written in English with a belgian accent:

The email address comes is ...@attaboytv and suprisingly enough Attaboy TV make Wheeler Dealers so this is GR9 for pretending your are a TV star/muppet. :wink:

i would love to go on there and at the point he names his price i would say " i will give you 10k and a fray bentos pie for it" :lol:

Posted

I'd love to be able to afford to buy it but say "there is no fucking way you are filming me" and see whether they pass over a sale.

I bet they'd just get one of the production crew to take your place.

I saw the Triumph Stag episode last week. They made a big deal about saving £500 by fitting a good second hand roof over a new then told the buyer there was a brand new roof under the cover (dude was viewing the car with the roof down)...

this air filter

2504455.jpg

looks very similar to the one in a carby 604

it has the same twin coil setup as mine too

the big difference between this engine and the 604 seems to be the fancy exhaust manifold

I wonder how much power they make

Posted
The ad does look just like the one for the boss-eyed Range Rover they did.

 

I don't know for sure whether production crew have "bought" cars but I remember one buyer had a distinctive name, let's call him Tarquin.

He haggled, eld out 'is 'aaannnndd and duly bought the car.

The credits rolled and the third or fourth one was a production assistant called Tarquin...

 

That'll be Tobin then. He "'eld ahht is aaaaaand" to Brewer a few times in the first couple of series.

As much as Brewer is a bit of a cock, I seem to recall Clarkson smashing up a Renault Alpine up on one particularly shit episode of Top Wankers. So let's at least be thankful that he's not that much of a cock.

The Wheelerdealers Alpine does indeed look very sweet, but......if I was after one, no matter how nice it looked now, I couldn't ignore the fact that most of their projects are lashed up shite. I can't help feeling sorry for some of the punters who pick up their cars (smoky Lotus Esprit anyone?)
