Timewaster Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 Oh wow! Someone lend me a tenner, I HAVE to own one of these Some other stuff on there too - baseball hats and mugs for a fiver each. Knowing Brewer, they probably cost £6.50 to make!
Milford Cubicle Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 Surely the odious and shite-hating Quentin Willson is a far more deserving target than Mike Brewer.

I do remember him reviewing an A-reg Triumph Acclaim in the late 90's and claiming it was value for money over new cars - probably a one off. I think he does some column in the Guardian or something. It's absolute rubbish.

It's absolute rubbish. He has a column in the Sunday Mirror which always follows the same format every week: How brillant the latest electric/hybrid cars are Reviews some expensive 'super' car that no-one can afford. How much some car is going fetch that use to belong to a famous person Tells someone that their low milage mint car is worth a fortune Second car prices are shooting through the roof Thats the sort of crap every Sunday..
Milford Cubicle Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 For a bit of balance, I got QW's 'Cool Cars' book at Christmas and it's actually alright! It has a fair bit of rubbish stuff in it like the AMC Pacer and Edsel. It doesn't seem written in a sneery way either... Must have been ghost-written...
GJR 11L Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 Quentin bloody Willson indeed! Is the man really so up himself that he couldn't see the real reason why his agent got him the "Engine Restore" gig? I mean, if you're going to fill your engine with potentially damaging chunks of micro-swarf suspended in oil, then the oil should be really, really oily........ He was quite funny in The Simpsons though, and the urge to twat him full in the face is less intense than it is where Brewer's concerned.
Station Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 The Simpsons? Polystratus, that sounds pretty much spot on. "Steer well clear of cars without those modcons, such as no power steering, no electric windows, no radio ... as when you come to flog it ... it'll be worth ... less than you bought it for." "Incredibly ... if you buy this 2001 Jag ... for 5,000 pounds ... this time next year, it could be worth ... twice that!" Er, thanks there, Quent.
AXrescuer Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 Got no time for Wheeler Dealers any more. It's an average program marred by piss-poor editing. Mike: "Whoa Edd! Where's me interior gone? It was there when I bought it!" Edd: Well Mike, I noticed a couple of small marks on one of the seats so I thought that rather than waste 10 minutes cleaning it, I bought another interior and the best bit is that it only cost 2 grand! And, I've put the old one in the skip so nobody else will ever have to clean it too!" Mike: Ah, good thinking Edd. Well that's all for this week, see you next time on Wheeler Dealers. Talllaaar!
Guest Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 http://www.wheelerdealer.com/index.php? ... 2&Itemid=5 put the steering on full lock in both directions – if you hear a clicking noise coming from either front wheels, the wheel bearings will need replacing.I thought that normally was cv joints
Des Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 Surely the odious and shite-hating Quentin Willson is a far more deserving target than Mike Brewer.That's odious and shite-hating convicted clocker Quentin Willson.
autofive Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 What did you write?the usuallabour and false teeth costs should be included in the budget mentioned those cossie alloys etc Surely the odious and shite-hating Quentin Willson is a far more deserving target than Mike Brewer.That's odious and shite-hating convicted clocker Quentin Willson.did he? thats interesting any more info?
