the premise of the show is fixing a car up to make profit, the biggest 'profit' they ever made was only a few grand, and they had to spend a shitload to get that! most of the time its only a few hundred, but that's all they tell you about. rememebr that episode where they had a 911 and needed a new gearbox for it? they went to a place in kent for it, porsche specialist. my old housemate's dad owns that. they said they paid £2000 for the gearbox, plus trading in their old one. it wasn't, it was £2500, which was their entire profit gone on that car.
also, that scooby they ruined with the autographed racing stripes? bellends.
i think the most annoying bit is how they try and dumb down how stuff works so the average viewer can understand it. but they dumb it down so much, that they actually make it wrong.
rant over, i watch the show, but it makes me so angry!
oh and Niall, I just want you for your body.
That scooby was shite agree'd
Thing is that show isnt made for people like us, it is made for people who dont have a clue, and i supose it works people do believe it,
Factor in Ed's labour time in anyway the are £1000's out of pocket each time
