Triumph Spitfire Mk.IV (Part 1) (2009)
Wheeler Dealers returns - to the delight of Britain's motoring fans - as the team takes on the challenge of a lifetime: renovating a Triumph Spitfire. Mikes hunts down a Triumph Spitfire using the internet. First, he looks at a GTR, but the car is in too early a state of restoration. He then moves onto a 29 years old Mark IV in British Racing Green. On the test drive, Mike hears a whining in the differential and has concerns for the suspension.
Triumph Spitfire Mk.IV (Part 2) (2009)
The second instalment of this majestic motor challenge sees the boys race against time on the Spitfire revival. Is a triumph on the cards for the team? Ed fits a new pair of shocks to the rear of the Spitfire. He also takes a look at a problem with the rear differential with the aid of his friend Paul.
Porsche 944 Turbo (Part 1) (2009)
Mike Brewer is on the look out for a Porsche 944 Turbo to buy cheap, restore and sell on. But the used cars he finds are either no-hopers or way too expensive. Then he spots an ad on eBay… can he win the auction and get a bargain classic car? Mike delivers the car he finally chooses to Edd, who on inspection sees there is not much to do to bring this used car back to its former glory. Mike’s answer to this is to get Edd to prepare it for a 944 track day. He reckons he’ll make more money on this than if he’d left it in standard road spec. Will he be right?
Porsche 944 Turbo (Part 2) (2009)
Wheeler dealer Mike Brewer has bought a 1987 Porsche 944 Turbo, and instead of refining it for the road he has asked star mechanic Edd China to turn it into a track car. After Edd has finished with the car restoration, Mike and Edd head to Silverstone to really see what this modified Porsche 944 Turbo can do. Has Mike made the right decision to turn this used car into a track car, and more importantly, will it sell?
AUDI Quattro (Part 1) (2009)
Mike has £5,000 to purchase and restore a classic car - the Audi Quattro, which has a huge fan base. Struggling to find one that matches the price he is looking for on the internet, Mike gives a few of his contacts a ring. He finds a 1986 Audi Quattro, but will it be cheap enough for him to make a tidy profit? Plus, on the way back to the workshop Mike has some problems with the clutch and worries that the budget will be hit hard if it means a big repair job!
