Deals Wheels and Steals

[Cavcraft]

At times it seems like we're not allowed to like car programmes on AS. This is one of the reasons they get a rough ride...

...clueless commentary, what look very like 'fixed' buyers and pundits who talk absolute bollocks. Enjoy....

 

 

 

*Edit: check out the bloke who owns the body shop and what he was doing prior to the Range Rover being sprayed.

[UltraWomble]

If I was a car I'd be a Porshe 911

 

 

Then why are you driving a Pug 107?

[greengartside]

Ha, just posted about this on the grump thread. Made by the same company as Brewboy and Chinook. I was sat watching it and thought that everything was so far fetched it was unreal. That bloke who sold the Golf looks a lot like 'oldahtyaaand'...

[HMC]

It was predictable, caricatureish and not very good but despite (or perhaps because of this) I found it quite entertaining and funny.

[EssDeeWon]

Just watched this on +1

 

*ITV in a load of made up reality crap shocker*

[nacho man]

Was pretty crap, but hey I like wheeler dealers and top gear.

 

 

 

So suck on that.

[HH-R]

What was that programme that used to be on with the portly gent that used to like doing sums on the windscreens of the cars? Think Penny Mallory or someone was in it. Is it like a poor man's version of that?

Oh yeah I had forgotten about that, can't remember what its called though.

[HMC]

Deals on wheels, Brewer and Richard Sutton (ex c&sc and then future Goodwood Revival bloke)

 

Edit- no that was something else entirely, what you mean is Penny Mallory and Jason Dawe (original new tg format co presenter untill ditched for James May) Cant remember the name of that show your on about tho.

The Portly bloke was Jason Dawe.

[HMC]

Used car roadshow?

[EssDeeWon]

Yeah thats it...

 

Some middle aged bloke would come on with £8k to spend during a mid life crisis after a 2 seater beater.

[HH-R]

Cheers both, that's the one. I hadn't realised Jason Dawe was on TG! Mustn't have seen any of that series. There's a similar thing on (or was recently) with Rebecca Jackson and someone else.

 

"Driven" used to be pretty good back in the day, on C4.

[Hertz]

Yes that was the one! Wasn't Jason Dawe in the very first (new Top Gear) while they waited for Captain Slow?

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Yes, in a dull segment about bread and butter car prices. 

[Bear]

I suspect Jason Dawe's role was to make real useful car info as boring as possible so they could justify losing it entirely.

[sheffcortinacentre]

sounds like I was lucky & missed it.

will make sure i'm doing something really useful for the next episode like bathing my goldfish or road testing the new carbon fibre shell on my racing snail.

[trigger]

Why did the Range Rover seller pour paint onto the prepped bonnet? It was crap but I'll probably watch it again.

Twas on ''Men and Motors TV, Used car roadshow (Cheers for reminding me Essexman)  he was at a show a few years ago, which I was at, and one runner asked me if I would like to pull my Camaro onto the set, ''Ok'' I said not too arsed, I did then look as ole Fatty decided to sit on me fucking bonnet and started slagging it off.  '' OI you twat get off me bonnet'' ----'SHHHHHSSSS WERE FILMING''

''Fuck your filming Ive  got a fat cunt on me bonnet''' 

 

Thus ended my film career.

[primin2015]

I certainly remember Deals on Wheels, where ordinary folk filmed themselves making a complete dog's dinner of selling their cars. One woman couldn't wait to offer the buyer money off her Vauxhall Nova, bringing on the wrath of Mike Brewer at its full force 10 best! and who could forget that tool who didn't shut the bonnet of his E-Type properly, allowing it to fly open on the test drive, tearing the front valance air intake to bits and knocking a small fortune off its value!

 

Don't even get me started on Classic Car Rescue, with Bernie and Mawwiooooo!

[Junkman]

It was a lot like Cannock auctions, really. Except the cars weren't as shonky, the dealers have no migrant backgound and golden neckchains and there is no Autoshite in the Community secondment.

[colino]

I assume that Clarkson and Wilman have spent some of their vast fortunes and invested in Attaboy to produce this garbage, just to make sure petrol-heads realise their needs aren't be catered for and will sign up to Amazon for Gear Knobs.

Take one entirely clapped out, petrol, ancient, moon-miles Range Rover with rust everywhere and every fault ticked, paint in undesirable colour (without properly repairing knackered bodywork), for a mere, potential customer and make more profit than your chrome and glass palace makes on a brand new Focus.

Utter garbage.

[oldcars]

Yeah thats it...

 

Some middle aged bloke would come on with £8k to spend during a mid life crisis after a 2 seater beater.

Enjoyed watching that program. Always wanted to go on it with £400, must have leather, cruise, under 40000 etc and see what they said. 

[Mr A Lawrence]

I just watched it on the itv player and lost the will to live.

[Alexg]

Apparently I have to register with ITV to watch this. I'd rather deep fry my genitals. If this is what I think it is though, I was approached on twitter by one of the team about being part of it. I explained I don't frequent auctions and buy leaky BL shite for fun. Bizarrely this didn't put her off, but I wasn't interested.

[Station]

ITV is the worst channel available - crap reality crapness and 10 minute long adverts every ten minutes - better entertainment watch those delightfully minging distorted council estate orange horror bags on Babestation wiggling their phone about (so I'm told).

[cort16]

The original deals on wheels with Brewer and Richard Sutton was brilliant. One of my favourite cars shows ever.

[cort16]

Episode 3

A seven litre Jenson Interceptor and a Hyundai Stellar get varying results
