The so called wheeler Dealer'' profit'' excludes overheads and labour so the Land rover was in reality sold at a loss.

Very interesting information - thanks.

I just stumbled upon your channel, love it!!as a wheeler dealers fan great to see where are they now looking forward to checking out your other vids

Lada was the Zhiguli until sold in the west. Zhiguli sounded too much like gigolo, and had to be changed.

Tony Lanfranchi raced a Moskvitch 412 in the British Saloon Car Championship back in the day. Championship winner to boot.

The trio were safer driving through Iraq Africa Alabama with extremely offensive things spray painted on their cars then they were driving through a 1st world country with a license plate on one car

Very interesting video.thanks

Let's face it. If WD was a real pukka garage they would have gone bust years ago. Ignoring labour costs and forgetting all that equipment Edd had in his garage makes the costs ridiculously low. They had a Fiat Dino in one episode that Mike brought over from Italy. They sold it for around 15k which was around 2k profit. They are currently going for between 50k-150k. MB obviously doesn't plan for the long term. Nice to know though that the vehicles they do work on don't just fall apart the moment the cameras turn off. Much better than some of those 'We rebuild your house for you while you're on holiday because you're a nice person' crap TV shows where the ceiling cracks after a few weeks and the doors won't open.😂

From across the pond: Thank you for the update on the "Chelsea Tractor". I remember the original episonde where it appeared they actually acquired it from a farm setting. Narragansett Bay

That Volvo is simply lovely ❤

That Audi 100 was an Audi 80.

The land rover clearly had a friendly mot for years then the new owner got it tested at a regular place

Please they did. Eddie did as he did all the graft all Mike did was buy rubbish lol

I like the look of the early Lada’s/Fiats. Becoming classics???

Hammond has the Capri he has mentioned it himself

Enjoyed 👍

the RX7 from wheeler dealers is currently for sale on autotrader for an eyewatering 40 grand. still equipped with those awful decals

Well done Trev a fascinating insight into motoring over there. Interesting to see the dreaded Lada Samara there, I used to have to take the odd ones in part-ex sometimes, IMHO the most uncomfortable car to drive with possibly some of the worst build quality of the day. 😀

Ladas been called Classic cars that's definitely a 1st lol

I just bought my mom a ford fiesta and coincidentally the number plate is her birthday.

Love a good car spotting video

The lengths you go to bring us information. Well done once again Trev

Yes we got the Samara saloon in the UK for few years

Have to say I was not impressed by the auctioneer. I wonder if it's possible to be less enthusiastic and offputting. If I went to that auction it's a day wasted. I'd be interested to know if all their auctions are this dull or if they actually do sell more cars at other times. Eg. if it won't start at the bottom of the estimate drop the starting point and see if that brings up some interest and see if you can get a couple or more bidders to come in and push it up. If you do that they often meet or exceed the estimate. And if it doesn't you've lost nothing compared to a daft high starting point from where it's bought in or passed.

Another good video 🚗🚙🚘👍👍👍👏👏👏👏

I was in Tashkent twenty years ago, they bomb around in the snow with their winter tyres, great city I loved the food and markets there.

Great video, good to see how another country look after classics.

I always knew all those two did was a bodge job.

A car spotter is never off duty :)

I want a Zaz.

We used to pop jokes about ladas, but they are real workhorses

I confess Uzbekistan in October is not at the top of my holiday destinations list, but I'm sure it's quite interesting. Have a great time and we'll see you when you get back.

3:49 It is not an Audi 100. It's a Volkswagen Passat B2.

I left a comment on your Where are the final Grand Tour cars video but it kept getting deleted for some annoying reason. I said you can see the cars in one of Clarksons insta posts.

It's interesting to think what stories these survivors of their type could tell as thay go from a status symbol to a work horse & on to be a classic.

In the back of my brain buried deeply I do remember the saloon lada here in the uk.

What happens if you put the labour in.? Kerching.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💥💥💥🇮🇩🤝

Kevin whatley looks so young in this TV series considering he is now 73 years old

These classics are a great investment, you just need to factor in a complete rebuild every now and then and the upkeep including storage and so on. Mechanics love you if you have one and you drive it regularly.

Love that there are people buying and keeping these great cars on the road, I can't afford one but love just seeing them

The rover SD1 brings back memories as it use to be my fathers car. That exact one silver and the rust from when us kids damaged it and dented the door sadly.

It’s great they can understand what the auctioneer is saying

Ur Quattro 😍 nice work👍👍😍🚗

Wouldn't be surprised if the SL is in Spain with someone who spends part of the time here the Rest in Spain unless it was just sold to someone who lived in Europe.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️💥💥💥🇮🇩🤝

the collectors stuff holds but working people are out the lower end

I owned this P1800 the mot's for 2019 20 and21 Were mine. For safety I always have classics done each year. Templer and wilde did some more work on it and it was close to concourse when I sold it. I am sure you are aware that when it comes to that level guide and auction values go haywire. If you want the best then it doesn't come cheap. The end value was near £40k. Brilliant car often wonder if I did the right thing selling it to fund the next project. But never look back!! Regarding Roger Moore ,it was the car SoS P1800 he signed not this one

Had p1800, s in the 80s and 90s,they were rotten then, had sills, arches, wings on, you could go to speeds of Alfreton and buy parts then, I used to go to a big breaker, volvo village in Sheffield and get bits to keep mine going, went to the south of France in a 1800E,fast car, was doing a 100 sometimes, unburstable engines.

So both vehicles are still going and of course the Volvo P1800 with the very reliable red block motor you would expect the P1800 to still be running as with any vehicle with any very reliable engine as for the Land Rover that is also good to see its still going and through your persistent automotive detective work
