Mike Takes A Risk On A BMW Which Hasn't Run In 17 Years | Wheeler Dealers

[@Stevegeta]

not gonna lie this made me chuckle

[@TsiGraphics]

"I'll just check the head gasket isn't damaged and there's no milky stuff on the cap" - Oil emulsification isn't always a sign of a head gasket issue. Engine breather pipes and blowby is also a possible issue.

[@jonathanneethling]

After Ed left, so did most of the viewers. They killed the dynamics. Pitty.

[@spicyswiss]

to true used to watch all the time until ed left. Think we may see bigger and better things from ed in future (fingers crossed)

[@kuglepen64]

I like the new episodes, Ant is not bad at all.

[@jonathanneethling]

No disrespect to Ant. I just happen to think that M.B gets far to much credit for what he actually does...far far FAR too much credit. Yes he is engaging, but frankly there are a ton of people just on youtube that could do his job, and possibly do it better. Ed had a way about himself. After every episode you’d wish you could do what he does. Ed made everything possible, he made the viewers feel part of the solutions, and part of his job ... and to think he got tossed out because he wasn’t prepared to change that, is a pity. Look at 5th Gear - i think its called - final gear now. I don’t know for sure, because people behind the scenes changed the dynamic of the show. The Grand Tour is a success because there is loyalty among the presenters AND the crew! Its a team. A family. You cant fail... And thats why Ed is a legend. And thats why no body will remember the new season of Wheeler what? They’ll just fade away into obscurity, and one day you’ll walk in a greasy spoon and you’ll recognize ol’ Mike and say,” Werent you that guy? from that thing? What was it? “..... He’ll answer... but you’d have already lost interest and just ordered a coffee.

[@Kjeldsen8800]

Jonathan Neethling damn, you nailed that one. Ant's great I think, but yeah the ol' Mike and Ed cocktail was better, even though Mike som times pisses me off, but I usually skip some "Mike sections". I've learnt a lot from Ed and use a lot of his tips and tricks when I'm working at home on my cars as a hobby mechanic. Maybe an Ed and Ant car show? 😀

[@sikaerkki666]

dynamics,that fat bastard keep on making himself ,but edd is the soul of this show..

[@djhatstand7312]

How about giving Edd his own series, rather then keep making money off the back of him?

[@ajay999999]

I think he should leave

[@my_other_account6008]

DJ Hatstand First episode released on youtube this week.

[@djhatstand7312]

Watched it, Edd back to his best, doing what he loves, subscribed

[@andyireland7765]

The biggest issue here is, it was advertised for 5795 and he bought it for 7700.

[@kevinpatrickmacnutt]

A lot of money?!? A rust free Tii should at least bring 14k if it needs a bit of work and 25k in mint condition.

[@SilverCanary1]

After labour (which in most UK programmes seems to be completely ignored) there won't be a lot of change left over after they've reconditioned a 40 year old european cars brakes, interior, engine *and* given it a full respray and that's all providing there's nothing seriously wrong with the engine or anything else (gearbox, propshaft etc). After all that's been done they might not find a buyer for it at all or certainly not for what they want to sell it for...

[@hectorsoy]

I've seen these for $35K now! The prices are getting ridiculous I had a carburated 2002 and i've seen those going over $15K in mint condition

[@tiko5876]

hectorsoy they’re super collectible.

[@thegingerpowerranger]

I'd say Mike hasn't gone for a run in longer than 17 years.

[@lifeofdan2807]

I would have never sold such a beautiful car to a guy like him

[@jrand2631]

Excuse me, but who gives a sh** about Mike Brewer these days!? I only watched Wheeler Dealers because of Edd China.

[@uk6989]

Amen

[@csoacomputers]

I Know what a loser. Sells out to the discovery channel. There new show is poop and the ANT is a fake Mechanic. Mike B should do everyone a favor and go back to the UK.

[@xyz-uz6me]

@@csoacomputers What makes you say that, Ant is just as accomplished a mechanic as Edd.

[@xyz-uz6me]

Who asked for your opinion, thousands of people are still watching.

[@jonjon1432]

This begins with a bed time story so I went to sleep at once

[@kierannaylor5880]

i dont like the way he slammed that boot XD

[@Superflight777ge]

owner incresed the price on that mike-move

[@dcplanbful]

haha, did he bring the smallest flashlight he could find?

[@nolesy51]

my buddy has a completley rusted out one of these but driven in the harshest winters

[@BfoYhDoT]

lovely episode i wish i can watch fulf episode .

[@stalbanstech7396]

Not long (May 1st) until Edd China returns on the Edd China Garage Revival Channel on KZbin, remember May 1st and the great man returns

[@jjryan1352]

Sue: Why you always bring me junk? 🤣

[@mark_wangerin]

Agreed... I met Mike last year in Newport Beach and he's as jolly off screen as on. But I have to agree the show isn't the same without Ed. Likewise, the show wouldn't the same were the roles reversed and Mike were gone. This show needs them BOTH!

[@towallomeesgel1703]

It's going to need a water pump and brakes.. My 2002 sat for 5 years. I changed the oil, put a carburetor and water pump and I drive it today. For what they paid, they're going to make a lot of money.

[@Sean-me4fv]

Why is he so rough with the trunk / boot ?

[@TheVirusGuy]

Where can i watch full episode? On questtv.co.uk player says i cant watch this video in my country.

[@mxcostadelsol3651]

What a bum you need to be to have that in your garage for 17 years and not drive it

[@SteveTwoTheO]

Cause people keep them for investment.

[@mrcaboosevg6089]

If he knows nothing about cars it was good of him not to try and start it

[@zfouleur2904]

rob kerk That's not even the definition of a bum.

[@geraldswain3259]

A very shrewd bum I'd say !!!.

[@chris425amp7]

If he left it out front someone just might of stole them US spec Bumpers

[@barbaraleuba6211]

These guy's are hilarious, so sad they don't have a show together any more. Something like WD is a one time thing. Love it😂

[@mikeyash5225]

anyone got a link for the full episode

[@davidhunternyc1]

The son is going to die when he realizes that his father sold a masterpiece !!! Poor guy.

[@AdammP]

Hasn't been ran in 17 years.. checks oil filler cap for sludge incase of head gasket failure.. errr I doubt milky sludge is going to stay on there 17 years.. surely the water would dissipate after that long 😂

[@Martindyna]

Not sure that that check works on an OHC engine since there's oil being sprayed around all of the time to wash any white `mousse' away (amount of sprayed oil up to the cam cover presumably varies depending on the manufacturer). I assume these engines are OHC.

[@jamilot1]

Ed was the soul of wheeler dealers

[@ptk4476]

Mike still talks about the "legs" having no sign of accident damage after all these years, it just another one of those things that makes you think he has NFI what he's talking about.

[@tcpnetworks]

I'm missing Ed. The new version of the show is pretty shit...

[@zahemi914]

I always have soft spot for that year 2-door BMW

[@mikesimmonds1916]

Sorry - no Edd, No Watch.

[@DarkKnightwing75]

Mike Simmonds Edd was in the video nearer the end

[@DarkKnightwing75]

Mike Simmonds it is a terrible show though, now that is

[@mikesimmonds1916]

So many of the shows we watch for an obvious talent. A skill demonstrated verbally or physically on screen, Ed had both. We used the skip forward bits for the adverts and that other bloke.

[@hurricanearthur9742]

Wheeler Dealers please come back !

[@870expressmag]

That was a steal for the solid body alone. I'm jealous😢.

[@BeemerTwelve]

@0.32 "Look at that.. ..no dead body in the trunk, what's the deal?"

[@alexw1875]

It is so sad that the BMW 2002 cannot be given as an 18th birthday gift to the son but it should be in better hands after it was bought.

[@Superflight777ge]

kid didn't seem to care for it

[@Seamus322]

Prices on those have skyrocketed- there's one on autotrader.com classics- a '72 tii, same color, recent restoration- asking $80K(!!??)

[@cadpietre4378]

@2:57 he has to think about it??? wtf!

[@kanggoo57]

Us spec bumpers ewww :P

[@bran756]

Mike is a chancer, where as Edd is a down to earth nice guy all the best Edd I'm on your team sir

[@majorfrost8206]

What kind of an idiot locks a perfectly good 2002 in a garage for 17 years?

[@necmettinovacik9288]

Why did the plates change at the end?

[@Anirossa]

My Ford Granada from 82 stood in a garage for 17 years, it runs now(:

[@ItsaRomethingeveryday]

Ok, y'all show vehicle acquisition, now, would like to see the restoration n completions, please, to be honest it sucks only seeing one part of this

[@heyrod59]

When new they weren't much more than 5k. But this is a rust free example with its original engine and everything else. A good deal that will make money, plus it's a Tii even better !

[@Malc2169]

Americanised shite - Wheeler Dealers was good back in the day, until Brewer sold out.

[@brandonwright2067]

Hell you take a risk on new bmw’s lol though I love them.

[@jamesstuart3346]

In this episode, Mike gets royally ripped off and begs Edd to save his sorry *ss.

[@Superflight777ge]

Classic craigslist shyster. I feel he wasn't a fan of mike.

[@Cakebattered]

Fake TV drama. Any former BMW 2002 owner knew that car was worth investing in once you see the lack of rust in the wheel well. Hand crank the engine, and its time to talk $$$.

[@DBCSgaming]

Such a shame Ed left 😢 it killed the series 😢

[@sikaerkki666]

sure,edd left cause velocity made garage time so much lighter,and edd find it out,,we all love when edd fix problems and that is a wheeler dealer,not mike buying,

[@victor67563]

Please complete chapters

[@razorgcy]

I'm here just to give a thumbs down to the video, for Mike The Traitor! Edd was the real mast of the ship!

[@adrianram7677]

Thats my dream car especially the 1972 which i think (correct me if im wrong) has the circle rear lights.

[@kgarba9253]

Yup. 73 also. 74 was the first square light year. People seem to prefer the "roundies"

[@jaberjaber131]

I can't believe that they sold it , especially since there's his young son who could have kept it in the family for a third generation

[@titodenino]

3:45 scammed

[@CosgroveNotts]

Buy nothing from Brewer lol

[@michaelhasse2568]

People amaze me, how can you have a car like that & not tinker with it. If you have a classic car rotting away please sell to someone who will bring it back

[@richardclarke376]

130BHP in 1974? A lovely car, I'd buy it! When BMWs were worth the money!

[@computeraddic675]

Yeah,from just two liters!

Hi men, did you can star engine without sensors, only essentials for run? make a video

[@craigstewart1532]

Huh?

[@jamesmawdsley7306]

I didn't get through the last series with Ed in it. I stopped watching after the Porsche 912. It was painful to watch. Ed being systematically sidelined and Mike more interested in advertising his dealership business. It's a real shame. I hope Ed comes back with a good show that wipes the floor with Velocity, Ant and most of all Mike. Sometimes loyalty is worth more than the money.

[@interloperopp]

Without edd, brewers droop just gives em a wash flogs them on Hes just a back st dealer Why does he not include hotels flights and edds work When they was together

[@RDubbayah]

Not much of a risk on an M10 engine. Now try starting a Bavaria that hasn't started in 17 years and I'll be impressed.

[@DarkKnightwing75]

I don’t understand why Mike got this show. He clearly screws it up every time and he has know idea what he’s doing. He spoke about making the bumpers smaller. You don’t just make them smaller, you’d have to buy new bumpers.

[@jeffmullinix7916]

Come no now old chap ! Dont be Grinch . It s figure of speech .

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

we got an internet expert here guys

[@alexmorgan3435]

Although you have to admit Brewer comes across as a cheeky chappy bell end, he and Ed had good chemistry, the both of them like The Odd Couple were worth watching and definitely Ed working has magic on the dodgy cars Mike dragged back much like a cat dragging back a pathetic mouse looking at you and saying "Look what I found!" They should have sorted out their money differences and stayed together if only for the programme they had created which was uniquely theirs. Like an old married couple now split up.

[@bryanduncan1640]

The whole premise of wheeler- dealers is fatally flawed - it depends on finding an idiot to give you his car for a stupid price and then doing it up without Allowing for any labour, rent, tool hire charges and then still not getting a decent price for the finished article ( unless you find another idiot).

[@davidviner4932]

Ed was the only reason I watched WD

[@ScubaDiverMan711]

Why didn’t you start the car?! I need to know if it came back to life!

Nice but... the "restored" car is not the one they bought! It has a different number plate (or did they "restore" the numbers too?) and also some details (like, no side lights).
