    Edd is the man. Mechanical skills, teaching skills, credibility and personality second to none. One of the most iconic "jump-the-shark" moments on TV when he left the show. Threw out the baby, kept the dirty bathwater.

    Edd you are undoubtedly the most talented man in the business! When you left the WD show my wife and I stoped watching. YOU were the reason to watch. You continually amazed with your skills in all phases of repair. We wish you nothing but the best and just know that you are sorely missed.🥺

    Edds ability to deliver information on any aspect of vehicle engineering is a true skill he encapsulates British engineering and what we would expect from a master mechanic. These are the traits that have inspired the dreams of the apprentice to the skilled inventor and in the past made British engineering truly the best

    When Ed and Mike parted ways WD went down the tube. I also believe moving the show to the US is the beginning of the end for WD. Ed and the UK based show was more entertaining. My ten cents...

    The Karmann Ghia is pretty, and it is cool that the body is all one piece without seems between panels. But if I had one I would be paranoid about denting the body panel and not being able to fix it by just replacing a section.I guess I would prefer a bus or a standard beetle if I were to go air cool VW.

    Ed makes a nice metal patch in the front storage area, but then doesn't take 30 seconds to mask off or cover the washer tube?! He also mentions having the car going to the paint shop for the red-touch ups but uses rattle can satin black in the engine compartment? Penny wise and pound foolish would seem to be the appropriate description of such work.

    Why do people don't understand that WD is a tv show where mike is buying the cars and parts and Ed fixes the cars? It's not reality tv, so Mike is not
    a garage owner and Ed isn't his employee! It's a tv show and the format is buying, fixing and sell on cars, that's it! And i like Ed but he got more grumpier
    every episode, because in the beginning Ed was always excited when Mike brought a new car to fix, but later Ed was always grumpy and a bit pissed off,
    so he got cocky alright. And then the producers of the show desided that they didn't want to go into the details that much, because it takes a large crew
    of cameramen and so on, so alot of cost and they just wanted to cut the cost so ED got payed the same but less airtime. Well, when i would be Ed, then
    i wouldn't give a damn as long they keep on paying me the same money, but that wasn't good enough for good old Ed, so he thought that he could better
    and thought that he would get his own show. Well, that turned out not as expected, so here he is, the next youtuber that makes a few bucks from youtube,
    but no more tv work for Ed, so he sure made a big mistake by thinking that he's a big star that could get a job everywhere!
