Wheeler Dealers (2003– )
6/10
Rating would be 9/10 if Mike hit the road...permanently
8 September 2023
Love all the 3 mechanics: they all seem to know their job and are entertaining and informative ( although my namesake Edd is the most charismatic and likeable. This of course makes the contrast with the mediocre miserly Mike even bigger. Knowing a vendor of one of the cars personally I know for a fact that Mike has at least once bamboozled the viewers. Is it really believable he always gets a lower price? The production's fixers sometimes supplement the 'official' price that has been agreed just to make Mr Brewer look larger than life. Furthermore, Mike often really annoys me, being a one-trick pony whenever he runs his 'spiel'. Another couple of things that at times are irritating are Mike's strange colour preferences (and even more his dislikes: eg the mini Moke with the white interior and his dislike of the colour yellow) and Mike's inability to speak a second language (English is my third language BTW) (eg the Renault Alpine from 'la douche France'). I really hope this series still has a future, but preferably one without a certain presenter with a limited vocabulary ("cheeky". "lumpy", "blower")
