[@nudisco300]

Edd is a jumped up mechanic that started to think he could tell the TV producers how to produce TV shows. Edd should have stayed in his box and just fix the cars - that's what he was hired to do It's a common theme in life, people get really good at a skill and then think they can walk on water and apply it to anything. Edd should not worry his head about production matters, after all I'm sure he wouldn't want a cameraman telling him how to skim a cylinder head?

And Mike just completely shit talks the guy making him out to be some kind of spoilt egotistical arsehole that just wants fame. And the thing is, Mike, you may be RIGHT about Edd, we don't see that side that you see, but when someone goes "What happened with Edd", just be bigger and say "We went our separate ways, stuff happened, I wish him well".

This proves to me that Mike Brewer will never be half the man Ed China is. He has not made any derogatory comments toward Mike Brewer.

Leaves a very bad taste in the mouth.

[@ALSNewsNow]

Yes he has. He CLEARLY blames Mike for what he saw as a reduction in his screen time, which never happened!! Edd probably left because of money. What, $200k per episode isn't enough? Edd lost it. He USED to be fun to watch- near the end all he did was sneer at Mike, and act like a stuck up elite prick that complained about everything Mike bought. Meanwhile, anything EDD bought turned to shit, lost money, or was flat out ridiculous in the end.

scotty197878 qualified or not is irrelevant. I personally know two qualified fitters (mechanics) who can only fault find with diagnostic equipment and bolt on a new part. I know someone else who can strip any car of any age, new or old and with common sense locate and possibly fix a defective component. I agree formal training is a good thing, but unless you have a real passion for cars and mechanics in general, it’s no good having someone look after your car who doesn’t give a shit.

As much as I hate his statement also. to suggest a self taught and unqualified person not able to call himself a real mechanic is also pretty insulting.

That was both commitment and hard work. Experience makes you a mechanic. not a piece of paper. I would not call myself a mechanic, because I don't do it on a day to day basis, that said I am more so than someone who just achieved level 2 ETC before working in retail for the rest of his life.

What always struck me about Ed was how well spoken he was and articulate when explaining the logic and reason for his actions when working on a car. Ed is a natural presenter and could probably present on any show about any subject, whereas Mike struggles with his grammar and pronunciation and has difficulty saying the word THREE. Mike has missed the point, WD was a tv show not a real garage set up, if they took into account Ed's labour costs and expertise, they would have made a loss on every car they touched. The point of the show was demonstrate Ed's abilities to diagnose, repair and bring back cars to their former glory. Perhaps Ed doesn't need the money any more but it would be a shame if he doesn't stay on our screens, he has a lot to offer.

Ed has a very different version of what happened. I know who I believe.

[@ALSNewsNow]

Or the "artist" who made up the excuse that the show was cutting shop time, which according to the new show with Ant was CLEARLY a bullshit excuse- Discovery did no such thing!

[@GWidseth]

Series 13 was CLEAR evidence that is exactly what was happening. The huge negative response to series 13 and Edd's departure because of the reduced amount of mechanical content must have made Velocity have a rethink. Did you see the LUV episode, or how little of work they showed on the '73 Camaro compared to how much work actually went into it!? Ant also said on Twitter that he was planning to make sure more mechanical work was show. So maybe Ant influenced it, or maybe even demanded it during contract negotiations.

[@richardm5664]

I've watched every series and S13 was easily the worst. You can tell that the show had gotten a lot bigger than it was and things were changed too much to suit the US market. Too much talking and scripted conversations to create "drama" or "entertainment". Too much fake comedy and entire areas of a revamp missing (there are numerous episodes where the interior needed repairing but the process wasn't actually shown unlike in any series pre-S13 where everything they said needed doing, was shown). As mentioned, the Chevy Luv episode was terrible. Interestingly, the best episodes are the ones with the most repairs shown in the greatest detail because you can still see Edd's enthusiasm in these episodes. Can't say I will carry on watching the rest but hopefully they sort it out and good luck to Ant Antstead. At least they got in somebody decent to replace Edd and I liked watching his work in "For The Love of Cars" on Channel 4 here in the UK. Just dial back all the crowbarred-in comedy and scripted banter...use the time to show repairs and the educational stuff that made WD great in the first place.

[@johnmehaffey9953]

nice to see someone still sticking up for the mate they worked together with for so many years, obviously it is not mike brewer if you see the clip of Edd telling people to lay off mike and his family and being gracious about the wheeler series it is no wonder viewers will be switching off in their droves and after watching every series I certainly will not be viewing this next run, looks like you will be back to your day job soon mike selling second hand motors and I will be deleting your you tube app as well,sometimes things don't work out but be gracious because you don't know who you will meet on the way down

This show would be a lot better if Brewer was someone who could apply technical expertise alongside the person he dumps all the work on. As has been said, anyone can be a used car sales person. Expecting anyone, week after week, to fix/upgrade vehicles without help from the 'star of the show' would wear anyone down. To me, the real stars of the show are the ones who actually do all the work on the vehicles.

The fact that Mike is constantly blinking, losing eye contact and keeps looking down is a VERY strong indication he is bullshitting.

[@iainbagnall4825]

Interesting, Mike was holding his tongue a bit here, we haven't heard the whole story. I did have the pleasure of calling Mike Brewer once when working as a researcher for a PR firm, unlike most of the celebs I would get in touch with he was very down to earth and happy to help and understood what we were doing and why and how it helped him. I remember he was doing the vacuuming when I called, his wife answered and put him on the phone. So if nothing else I know Mike is the sort of chap who does his bit with the chores at home with a smile on his face and a cheery attitude. Hope that provides a bit of context for everyone. I also love Edd's work, so I think there is a little element of Beatlemania here where all the outsiders just cant understand why the dream team isn't together anymore *shrugs*. It should also be noted that both Edd and Mike by this point are TV stars; neither is a mechanic or a used car dealer, they are both performers. Anyone who maintains that there is more than 50% reality in "reality" TV shows is deluding themselves. Its closer to 5%, if that.

Edd is a genius mechanic and a gentleman, period. I used to record WD program, fast forward the car deal part and watch only Edd's magic. Edd has 4 Guiness records to his credit. He did not 'become star of the show', 'he was the star of the show'. Every comment made in this section disagrees of what Mike said about Edd.

[@brggmc]

Mike Brewer, when Edd China just got on with doing the job, he was the backbone of the show, with a natural flair for showing what he was doing and explaining why he was doing it. Whenever you got dirty actually doing anything connected with mechanics, you made sure we saw as much as possible of your efforts, as small as they may have been. Stick to selling cars.

[@karlporter2081]

I have only seen a couple of episodes of Wheeler Dealers and it was to watch and learn what Edd was doing basically because I don't have a clue about cars but I wanted to learn. I was never interested in Mike's parts and sometimes thought that he was an idiot, who didn't know what he was doing or talking about because he occasionally said something stupid about a car that just didn't make sense to me. To say such things about a colleague, whom you have worked with for so long, is shameful. Mike has just shown the world that he can't be trusted. I sure as hell wouldn't want to buy a car off him.

[@b577960]

Mike, a bit of advice okay- Never slag off someone who would never do the same to you. Your show was a hit because of you both and you both complemented each other, but it was Ed that people really came to see. Quite simply he did everything with class and he is a fine mechanic. Oh and a bit of advice always put the other person's name first in the final wrap up ie: "if you want to see more cars get turned around by me and Ed" A gentleman would say "by Ed and I"

I've watched many episodes with Edd, as well as some of the new ones with Ant in. My opinion of Mike has stayed the same since the start, and seems to coincide with others' opinions too.
