I recently got the chance to meet up with Edd China after shooting for Wheeler Dealers. Armed with some of your questions, I began the awkward, frequently 'heightist' and sometimes rude interview...

[@7r0j4n]

Edd makes learning enjoyable, great speaker and cool guy.

[@jd3076]

and james may makes learning Sleepable LOL

[@melgrant7404]

Should have tought what he knows As a profession. He's a good teacher.

[@NoGrip]

Edd's a lot funnier and better to watch like this than on a scripted tv show. I like him even more than I already did

[@Crana]

Who knew edd China was such a lad? I remember him from the early series, he was so awkward on camera, he has changed so much.

[@maicod]

He got quite cocky , its probably stardom

[@gggg-xx6gx]

Maico he's a fine lad.

[@melgrant7404]

@@maicod not at all.just more confident.mike brewer is cocky But not much to back it up with.

[@MossRods]

I love Wheeler Dealers! Edd: " We bought this car for 2300 quid, threw another 1000 quid into it, and sold it for 2310.50. WHAT A PROFIT!!! "

[@perbor24]

+ClassicCountryBoy1 and only worked 200 hours one the car

[@tidierpenny]

Every little helps.

[@FOCUSEGO]

Yes, I always thought this was a bit of a joke especially as his partner Mike considered himself the sales wizard. Some of the rebuilds and refurbishments Edd performed were stunning and appeared to demand a high price tag to match. Mike always sold cheaply in my view, maybe we should all look him up at one of his dealerships for that low priced high spec BMW?

[@DeputyNordburg]

in the early days of the show, they almost always made a profit, and no Ed was not getting paid an hourly fee, but as his net worth today is 3 Mil, it seems they did pay him to be on the show.

[@zaphodbeeblebrox6627]

Brewer never ever added to the equation Edd’s Labour, so as far as I could see they never made any profit on any cars they sold if you added that to the final costing.

[@tleuven]

I never imagined mr. China to be this quick in conservation, witty and funny. Awesome guy.

[@Bader.mobarak]

Ed: Get a friend that helps you Alex: And what happens if you haven't got any friends Alex always got my back

[@Oockeshoek]

+Bader Mubarak I have friends, just not friends that would help me with a project car...

[@Eeter26]

'what hight do you wanna be when you grow up?' #ROASTED xD DAYUM SON!!

[@NebulaMirage]

lol, so true

[@icloudhenshaw38]

Height

[@campanmarius5241]

+lamboguy 99 He got carbonized.

[@mussadaqtahir1406]

😂😂😂😂

[@MrBledi]

Height*

[@jango702]

Edd Brewer???? xD

[@AttilaThebung]

+Chris P Bacon Have you heard of the term "Joke" at all?

[@jango702]

Yes i have. Hence the "xD"

[@joshbriggsDayZBeast]

+AnthonyH u mug......

[@AttilaThebung]

Josh Briggs Everyone's gotta have a use. Apparently mine is holding fluids.

[@mrtommygunwhite]

him and mike China are awesome

[@burkezillar]

I've a lot to thank Mr.China for. The girlfriend though hates him, as I've knackered my car trying to change the timing belt. BUT I did try!

[@jaydee2559]

Don't worry mate, I did the same thing... ended up doing an engine swap... and that engine hasn't had a belt change :~

[@burkezillar]

I got it sorted since, I had stripped the bolt from the alternator so it was stuck. With PlusGas, a centre punch, and some dtermination I got it sorted

[@thepoopenator7341]

Edd China used to live down my road. I remember him driving past on his sofa once...

[@trev8591]

Why am I just seeing this 5 years later?!?! That was the best interview ever!

[@soundseeker63]

This was too funny! :-D All the height jokes, the constant MX5 references, the subtle jibes, pretend hugs, hair to wash etc... He did indeed seem to enjoy being between Edd's legs...but then who wouldn't? lol!

[@md-run]

Yeah Edd was a good sport, he has a decent sense of humour very likeable guy IMO.

[@Anditover]

My respect for Edd continues to grow exponentially. "What height do you want to be when you grow up?" Great job Alex, really nice warm interview, with a true gent.

[@gearhead3500]

finally someone has the balls to ask Edd that mike doesn't do shit jajajaja

[@ducktack1]

I'm convinced, looking at the body language and little bits of nice piss take, Edd knows this guy really well. Typical English humour. Makes me a happy chap knowing this. Others from non Uk could well see this as rude. It's not. The only other countries that GENERALLY have our 'warped' humour are the Aussies. Long may it continue

[@westie430]

I'm American & actually understand humor.😂 I love British humor & I died watching this. Don't lump *all* of us together😒😉

[@GAGKEvo]

Edd is a cool dude....

[@saginawdan]

kido hop Q

[@melgrant7404]

A gentlemen. Cool indeed.

[@krampus_]

Wasn't this uploaded on carthrottle like a few months ago? :p

[@TheRaceAcer]

+krampus_ probably

[@krampus_]

gta kingg Yeah i saw it posted on carthrottle's facebook page a few months ago

[@robertoferreira6368]

I thought I'd already watched this

[@klanny22]

+krampus_ It must have been, Edd said the series was coming out August 17th.

[@PakiiiBux]

Read the description. idk why they decided to upload this like over 3months after.

[@bushmanPMRR]

Why am I only finding this now? I am crying with laughter! Edd never disappoints, what a top guy!

[@MrDeadline34]

wheeler dealers should be on Netflix.

[@bobburborjigin9938]

bloody English humour, you cannot beat it.

[@geeteebloke1979]

I met edd china last year and got a couple of pics, I'm only 5'8" and he absolutely dwarfed me lol.... nice guy tho.

[@bbc_junior4863]

Yeah you’re the same height as Alex if I’m correct

[@mundotaku_org]

6ft 7in !!! Darn !!! He is taller than a lot baskeball players !!! No wonder he doesn't fit in many cars !!

[@michaelkennedy8573]

They've had him and mike in a Isetta..? what cars are you referring too?

[@taelorwatson9822]

He is actually 6"3 but didn't want to make that guy look bad

[@KillerJay17]

He looks like an anime character.

[@ThierryTheuns]

lol!

[@themightydash1714]

+Carlos Rick from rick and morty! lol, Now i cant unsee it!

[@greatferrarimasterplan4836]

Kakashi

[@Interceptor810]

0:40... lmao, didnt know Edd could be so savage

[@bArda26]

damn I grew up while watching him on discovery channel. I didn't know that he still makes a show. gotta watch it now

[@taxidude]

The rot set in when WD became yet another US car show. Should have stayed home.

[@edwardgriffin8092]

Mike China was in my class at school.

[@PaulMappud]

Mike Hunt was in mine......................

[@crumplezone1]

Arl sole was in mine

[@edwardgriffin8092]

His name is A. R. Sole, without the L, as in, The Beginner's Book Of Poisons, Bye R. Snick. and Falling Of a Cliff, Bye Ilean Dover. :-) lol

[@edwardgriffin8092]

Don Kiddick I remember Mike Hunt. Loved Crabs, and always had an itchy rash. :-)

[@crumplezone1]

Yes they are classics bud :)

[@alexkersten1964]

LOL at the butthurt that this video has caused with some people :D Me and Edd Brewer are tight, so don't worry ;)

[@fsxpilot8355]

Its actually the funniest side of Ed I ever saw, great interview. Car SOS 😂

[@anonimushbosh]

Wheeler Dealers in 10 seconds: Buy car for £10K. Spend £3K on parts, £5K on labour - then sell for £14K proudly claiming £1K profit.

[@Blackwood260]

Who the hell is Edd Brewer??!!

[@Leofred2000]

This is the best Awkward Interview. Its like they've known each other for ages

[@B2091]

😂 great interview Ed seems a great sport. I don’t get why some are moaning. People obviously don’t understand British humour/banter

[@craigc3780]

B2091 quite obvious at start when he said Ed Brewer you knew what was coming. No, I also don’t think people got the ‘interview ‘. Was funny.

[@rupertgordon9506]

You both have a good on screen chemistry, you should do a show together!

[@ARDEN440i]

Best mechanic in Europe

[@ARDEN440i]

And can you stop fucking boasting about your MX-5

[@alexkersten1964]

+MOPAR Or No Car / ABRAMS Or No Tank NOPE!

[@ARDEN440i]

RREGG​ Ha, you small minded ignorant yank you don't even know what the car is? I'll give you a clue. It comes 707hp and 650LB-FT of torque stock from factory. What the fuck do you drive?

[@OfficialRREGG]

+MOPAR Or No Car / ABRAMS Or No Tank hahaha shut up you toenail head, fiesta studio 1.25. around the 73hp Mark. top speed 101mph but on a good day 72. also made a subwoofer out of an egg box as well as an aftermarket truck horn. so yeah thrash your shitty 707hp micra

[@theDstip]

+RREGG i drive a stock 1.3 automatic starlet, it was red but its faded to bollocks from the sun so it now looks like my dads arse hole, rock n roll

[@jzshouse]

lmao these interviews are hilarious. The Chris Harris one was on point. Ed is a good sport too

[@Deiphobuzz]

6ft5 here. Being tall is cool and all that, until you fall in love with a car and don't fit in. Makes me sad.

[@bigsohc]

I can relate

[@juicycro]

Oh man, I wish I had an opportunity just to shake this man's hand... Edd you rock! And you seem like a really great guy, keep up the awesome work!

[@ajovialyoutubecommenter8691]

Edd's much funnier naturally vs. on the show.

[@InformationIsTheEdge]

That was brilliant! A bit of cheek, a bit of information and whole serving of fun!

[@H76Pro]

What surprises me about the show is how little profit they make! I wish I would buy one of the cars they had finished because I know I would be getting a great bargain!

[@shiTthebed86]

Hamed I thought that also. I reckon it's so they don't look like they are ripping people off.

[@craigc3780]

Am positive that what they lose or don’t make on the sale of the vehicle, they more than make up for the lost profit by SELLING the show for lots of money to the TV networks that air it worldwide.

[@KayoMichiels]

Is that a Citroen H Van in the back?

[@toms8188]

It is

[@mycosys]

+MK3424 season 12 episode 16 from 29/9 1958 Citroen HY - cool episode - they swapped in a transit engine and put a full inverter setup an deep cycle batteries in the back

[@alexk.8715]

Ed is a true inspiration. Basically got me into wrenching.

[@icebreakertech]

Hilarious, loved it :D and nice Edd is so honest.

[@82coxy]

I can't believe the amount of people in the comments with no sence of humour what so ever. "Alex was being mean with Edd", LMAO. Did you all miss the part when Edd called Alex a Wanker behind his back? Why hasn't any of the humourless people brought that up?

[@tomjoad1363]

- Can i come ? - What ? Right now ? XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[@Jigsjigz]

What crappy questions... why didnt u ask him why they never add his Labour costs to the money spent??

[@timothydunigan2564]

Jigsjigz because the"point" of the show is from a backyard mechanic's point of view. You wouldn't charge yourself labor, would you?

[@Lord-Cutler-Beckett]

"What do you want to be when you grow up?" DAAAAAAAAMMMM ROASTED

[@ludoskis]

Alex: Have you got Car Trottle? Ed: What?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@dennistaylor3009]

Lovely to hear and see you Edd looking forward to seeing the new show x. 😊

[@hamza361]

he looks like severus snape lol

[@TheBlueCorolla]

really funny interview, Edd China is a legend!

[@SM347YT]

Edd china knows more about cars. You drive a MK1 MX-5 and interrupt him 24:7 therefore youre ignorant

[@TheLeapstar]

I agree he was fkn rude!!

[@lukaszorszulski4788]

You do know it's acted out?

[@TheLeapstar]

+KaKa nah I didn't at the end, he was joking but jokes that seemed rude, i dunno im just a wheeler dealer fan :)

[@mycosys]

+Samuel Mills if you think your mx-5 bein a mk1 is bad you are clearly extremely ignorant.

[@matdoucet420]

you guys are like long loss brothers the chemistry is crazy and funny too

[@harris7695]

Great interview 😂 But at the start he said 'Edd Brewer from Car SOS' However besides that it was really top notch.

[@Dougieee]

why didn't Edd china say any thing wtf ?? ?

[@lolkingrd440]

Mechanical Madness it's part of the joke.....

[@MrDaiseymay]

@@Dougieee a deliberate 'Faux pas'. keep awake eh?

[@mattperez91]

Yes he did... its called sarcasm. I'm guessing the joke went over your head?

[@spadgm]

Started by introducing him as Edd Brewer, pmsl!!!!!

[@ChompsLewis]

if only edd had his own channel on youtube.

[@zacklance484]

ChompsLewis and now he does!!!!

[@ChompsLewis]

Zack Lance oh yeah? whats it called?

[@zacklance484]

Lol it's called Edd China

[@ChompsLewis]

Zack Lance haha! found it mate, and now im sad as hes just announced hes leaving the show!

[@johnnysidewayz6873]

ChompsLewis haha

[@GaitaPonto]

Edd Brewer????? Now I understand the "awkward" in the title.

[@Faraonqa]

why am I seeing this on August the 17th ? :D

[@l420e2]

I was thinking the same haha

[@ovr740]

oh my

[@joegillaspy]

One of the first things Edd says is that the new series is coming out on August the 17th.

[@markitoxi]

Yes coolest interview ever

[@bmw12386]

xxxnjx

[@laskos02]

Little spoiler of the new series : there will be a Citroën H coming, firstly cos that's the van that they could not talk about (the pannels made it clear is the Citroën h and also the grey paint) and secondly cos Ed wears a t-shirt with that car

[@schwabentutorials]

there's already a episode of wheeler dealers with the H Van out..

[@laskos02]

schwabentutorials yeah I realised later :D I didn't catch up with the new episodes so had no idea

[@demsweatygamers]

"Edd Brewer from Car SOS" No... XD Edd China from Wheeler Dealers...

[@simplypepe1732]

slowly claps ct

[@AlexanderPews]

3:56 so you just... And Edd's reply.. "Why not"... omg xD f****** awesome xD i pissed myself laughing!

[@ryanblevins8671]

I instantly Google Edd China RX-7 I'm disappointed Edd disappointed

[@cerrystyle]

I'm watching this 1 yr later when I heard that a new series is coming out I said oh yes but then saw the actual date and.. No way!

[@g.t.5483]

give this man a bmw isetta

[@marccopeman1686]

Ed’s really not ever going to get over wheeler dealer..... always seems so touchy about the whole subject

[@afeeqhasan6621]

It's the guy from wheeler dealers!

[@HoodlumRooster]

it's clearly car SOS

[@MeDicen_Rocha]

+Keith McEvoy i think its called both ways. Or no?

[@HoodlumRooster]

+El Gamer No tan cutre lol or are u serious?

[@dauf69]

+Keith McEvoy It's known as Wheeler Dealers here in SEA.

[@lucas-ks7yx]

+Keith McEvoy it is wheeler dealers here in the netherlands too so... stfu xD

[@jonnybottle]

"Edd Brewer of car SOS!" The interviewer must be a graduate of the Diane Abbot/Emily Thornberry school of painstaking preparation.

[@hagbard72]

Did Wheeler Dealers ever do an MX-5? If not, who cares?

[@taylorshergill925]

Robert Drake I don't think they did yet but they might

[@jamesmuffins3330]

They also did a Japanese import FD RX7. With a "unidenitifed" VeilSide spoiler.

[@thsantos]

Awesome, awesome, awesome, love both characters! You guys made my KZbin day!

[@1970955]

Hes called ED CHINA not ED BREWER

[@exuptoy]

I think that's called tongue in cheek. He also said Ed Brewer from Car SOS! :D

[@westie430]

I think that would be *Edd* China😂😑

[@Julian-do7bv]

I loved watching that show on velocity but direct tv took away the channel and I want it back lol I could watch that channel for days

[@grahamsmith2022]

How did Ed ruin an RX7?,did he make it even more tacky or maybe he made it sensible by putting a normal spoiler and exhaust on it?,I'm not sure what a ricer considers ruined.

[@TheJononator]

+Graham Smith they put a leopard skin wrap on its arse. that apparently ruined it.

[@grahamsmith2022]

Well now I can see how it was completely wrecked,sacrilege I would call it,have they no respect?😉,they'll be painting a Reliant Robin in bright yellow next,please excuse me,I think I may faint.

[@kanggoo57]

+Graham Smith no he put a snake skin camo, looked shit

[@mantassidlauskas9434]

This is the reason why Edd left wheeler dealers „wasting your time and everybodies time“ how could you possibly tell that to man which is the soul of this Tv show he,s honorable and really hard working man and you actually talk those things about his old friend Mike.

[@Kiret123]

looool they pisssed on that rx7. makes it even worse the owner wanted it back in the end. wtf llllllllooooooooollllllllllll

[@jmannetje1]

Probably because they couldnt sell it :D
