Anyone catch this last night on Quest? Pleasantly surprised actually. Firstly I have to get over the fact that I can't stand Drew Pritchard, he's a glorified car booter with a massive ego. However, the production company needed a 'face' and however unpalatable it was his. It had shades of early WD's as it actually visits small UK businesses (A trimmer and chroming) and shows the work being done. The cars were more mainstream in a golf gti and an elan 2+2 and next week.......

 

theres a mini ! :D

 

Having had endure that ruddy awful goblin works nonsense this was a pleasant change and well worth another watch

 

Be interested what other people who watched it thought?

yep I liked it. Someone on facebook said it was going to the mini episode, so I got all excited. Hopefully that'll be soon.

A bit all paint and pretty pretty for me. We all know that sporty classics like a Golf GTi  will have been thrashed probably. I would like to have seen a compression test. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't recall the buyer lifting the bonnet.

I didn’t see him lift the bonnet and thought those Pirelli alloys came a bit later than that year myself

Nice 'original' golf, Except the non original boot spoiler, cracked rear light lens and the rust on the driver door....
