I thought the interior was what you'd expect to pay from a concern like quattro corner.... am I wrong?

I was told by someone in the know that the interior was provided by the Wheeler Dealers Team and was "given" to Pete Reeve who then "Sold" it to Mike Brewer...all for the camera

I always suspected deals were done prior to any being filmed, but to supply a part in order to 'buy' it back, well.................that just takes the biscuit!!!!!

what they should really do is add just how many hours edd "me old" china spends with his magic wand on these squibs and then pass that on to the potential buyer!!

oh but wait. in that case no one would buy anything off of him!! ££££s!!
