Mike didn't seem to have a purpose except create drama that wasn't necessary.

    Anybody spot the trend? The producers had a great program, moved it to the states and ruined it. Mike Brewer stayed with the format, Edd didn't. Now it's happened again, makes you think we all know the problem? Now it's coming back home, but unless the format changes, it will be dead.

    I would love to see a spin-off collaboration between Ant Anstead and Edd China the mechanic's mechanic. Between them they could sack off the boring buying and selling / making a profit stuff, and focus on car restoration in the workshop. They could even experiment branching out into other machines such as wagons, bikes, steam engines etc.

    The mechanical side of Wheeler Dealers fascinates me. It was interesting to watch Ed's and Ant's engineering skills and charisma.

    Have to say I struggled to watch the early programs with Ed and Mike but after a while they grew on me so I carried on watching the program. I found Ed a great mechanic and once he left thought how are they going to replace him, enter Ant Anstead, facial expressions were slightly annoying but thats how he is, again so impressive with his car building qualities and his knowledge of engines, I found him rather good to watch and enjoyed his time on the program. Then came Elvis with his Formula 1 background, great guy good to watch but a little to staged for me. As for Mike Brewer? I think the laughs with Ant will be missed, they will be missed by me for sure, Elvis might grow on me but the one thing that will never grow on me is all this work done to these cars and guess who gets to rag the crap out of them.

    By the way do any of the cars you do have safety belts, Maybe I need to polish my glasses, some years ago my car the safety belt was getting a bit frayed, So I rang the people who would re-web it, and asked what happens for a week while you re-web it. He replied "I have never heard of any of our customers getting into trouble", Now the trouble is, I think too much, I took the passenger safety belt out and put it in the drivers side, it worked but for some reason it would not plug into the driver side anchor, I had to plug into the other side making the metal belt plate bend off in the other direction, and what a horrible thing to use, anyway within half a hour after drooping the belt off to get re-webbed, I was stopped by the police, I just had to drive into a area, they was stopping everyone,
    As for Wheeler Dealers I never seen anybody paying attention to safety belts that should need re-webbing if the safety belts get used
    I hope you can follow that, because now I am lost

      To be fair who gets a seatbelt rewebbed,?

    Mike's personality was what made Wheeler Dealers different, the idea of a car salesman buying a car and getting a mechanic to fix it up while explaining how you could do some of it yourself at home was genius. I didn't agree with going to the US they have loads of car shows, it was unique over here. I liked Ant but preferred Ed, I doubt they'd have trouble finding another mechanic though. I'm not surprise Ant left you could see that for him Wheeler Dealers wouldn't be enough.
