It was always Ed that made the cars valuable and gave a new value back to them! To be honest, watching Ed work on the cars was always my favourite part of the show!
I quit when Edd quit. Ed wanted to really show us how to make the necessary repairs and Mike just wanted a flashy show. I wanted to see how to really fix cars.

Lost interest when he and Ed went to America. You could see Ed wasn't happy and the show became typically American rubbish, should have stayed in the UK.
More people watch now with Elvis nice guy,and more talented than ed or ant formula one mechanic come on and mike's more relaxed with Elvis than the other two wheeler dealers is the best it's ever been 👍
@@anthonyreynolds2522 Don't dispute that, but time will tell, Edd did 184 episodes over 13 series, Ant did 54 episodes over 3 series and Elvis has only done 40 episodes over 2 series. It'll be interesting to see how long he can put up with Brewer.
@@brianperryI totally agree with you... Your comment was pretty much the same reply I was going to make! Kitchen Nightmares was great when it was in the U.K but when it moved to America, it was like watching any old 'makeover' show... Perhaps no different than Mike Brewer then? One does cars, the other does restaurants!
Yeah I'm binge watching them again but ignoring the yank based series as I've no interest in cars I've never heard of or will never appear on our roads. I love watching about rebuilding Spitfires, Jaaaaags, Saabs, Minis etc but some great big V8 lump with a turbo off a WW2 bomber and a bed in the back for GrandPa and Granddaughter........ Na...😂
Edd “look what can be done” China versus Ant “look what I can do” Anstead versus Mark “when I was in F1” Priestly. Edd wins hands down as he never glorified himself. And as for the used car salesman, that’s all he ever was.
All three mechanics have there strengths and if Brewer shows his face now and then that's fine, the nay sayers need to grow up. As long as the camera shows the finer detail of the fixes, I'll watch.👍
@@4ndy65 If they fund the programme then they call the shots I guess. As I had more joy in fixing over buying/selling, that was the point in time where my interest waned.
I never watched a single episode once Ed left. Ed was the corner stone and focal point for the Wheeler Dealer interest. A used car salesman on Red Bull never brought much for my interest.
Mike is someone i'd never want to work with. I'm sure some was staged, but his whole body language already annoys me ...but once he opens his mouth it's over for me. I especially love how he always says "we" built a great car, but hasn't done anything apart from finding the cheapest and most f'd up car on the market.
It wasn't the same without Ed. I never understood why the series went to America, they had hundreds of car shows, Wheeler Dealers was unique over here. I personally cant drive but I found it interesting to watch, if you owned a car it had invaluable information and advice.
Brewer is not a nice man. he always talked down to Ed China like he was inferior and lazy, the truth is how did Ed take the insults and abuses for all those years.
Edd was a complete fucktard. Blacklisted by the industry, which is why you haven't seen another show on TV with him. Meanwhile, Wheeler Dealers and it's variants are still going strong. Do the math.
That used to wind me up too. A used car salesman asking what a real worker had been doing really wasn't a good look. I'm surprised China never nutted him.
It´s acting and a TV-show. The tv era about that time was to create dynamic between the hosts.. Ed worked side by side with Mike from 2003 to 2017.. that´s 14 years - what do you get out of that?
@@yggstenit certainly didn’t come across as acting!…try talking to your local mechanic like Brewer talked to Ed and see if they laugh it off and fix your car with a big smile!…jeez
Edd was great. Entertaining and informative and clearly knew his stuff. Mike "Hold out your hand (especially if there is a piece of cake in it)" Brewer was, as far as I am concerned a second fiddle to Edd and not worth his own high opinion of himself. The most annoying thing about the show other than Mike, was that all the time that Edd put into the cars was simply never taken into account when calculating the profit (if they ever made any) on the cars he fixed up.
My understanding was Dicovery told Edd there would be less of him, more of Mike and more filming in the US, so that put him off. I only watched for Edd doing the fixing up and didn't care what it sold for or to whom.
You need to look the word "ignorant" up mate, because someone not interested in talking to someone doesn't make them ignorant, that's not the meaning of the word.
Brewer bought some sheds that normal people would walk away from. His attitude to his cohosts stank. He'd drop off a scrapper which he knew was on it's last legs, then run off and pretend to do some work. The final insult was when he sold them on fora tiny profit or a massive loss😮
Elvis always looks like he’s being bullied by Brewer, which he clearly is!…He’s given no choice or voice on decisions of what to do with bangers that Mike is suddenly finding from all of his mates?…Brewer also puts Elvis down about his age when the guy is a ex F1 mechanic… fgs he knows more about cars than Mike will ever learn!…and this video didn’t tell us anything that’s not already out there…more clickbait 👎
I have watched this show for quite a long time and enjoyed the work done by the various mechanics with their insightful explanations. However I am less than impressed with Brewer. I find him an annoyance with his abrasive personality and behaviour. I'd like to see a show where more emphasis is on the rebuild and repair done by the mechanics and if possible nothing of Brewer.
I thought that the Wheeler Dealer format and financing was Mike’s idea. It has been a massively successful show across all the mechanics/engineers. My Daughters have a happy interest in cars and how they work thanks in part to these sorts of shows. The show has generated a lot of good times over it’s decades in production
The problem is simple the excelent mechanics,that’s what they are but they all want to be bigger then the show,that can’t happen,they will all finish up with no showbiz,back in the workshop,never to be seen again,Mike Brewer has a good car dealership,he made the show popular,it was interesting to watch then different mechanics ,Ed China was the most entertaining mechanic I thought,but for Mike it really was his show.
Ed was head and shoulders above the others in this role, he repaired the cars. Ant serviced the cars. Elvis managed to stay remarkable clean, clearly doing as little as possible. The format is now stale.
I don’t watch Wheeler dealers because I don’t like Mike. Mike is constantly padding himself on the back for every little thing he does and it’s almost like he is in competition with the mechanic. I prefer to watch car S.O.S that has a good dynamic between Tim and Fuzz. A great show.
liked all the mechanics just used to get sick of brewer always telling everyone how happy he is with his life and his job like he was rubbing it in your face no tact or character or class a used car salesman what do you expect his job is to con you on both ends of the bargain and just use a mechanic as a tool so if you can find a free mechanic your laughing right
They cheapened the show and spent less time on the technical aspects of the repairs once they moved to America, which Edd disagreed with. It's better now it's back in the UK but the old shows where Edd was the mechanic are by far the best.
I watched it here in America. Even before they came to the states. It an was interesting show. I can't get excited about a 80HP micro car because it can take a corner at speed. That is a UK thing but still, I enjoyed watching it.
No hard feelings here. I lost interest in watching WD once Ed left. In every show Ed was willing to SHARE his knowledge whilst Mike only presented himself. The companies Mike visited where never named nor where they shown as a place to go for a repair. Also Mike always made them give HIM a special discount for the repairs done. The so called profit at the end was in no relation to what Ed and his repair mates had to work. If you compare the wordings Mike said, where the same in every show: iconic, extra quid, hold out your hand...
Watching the older episodes with Edd it comes across how negative he was - maybe this was the idea of the script writyers who wanted Edd to suggest MB had taken on a whole bunch of problems. Overall a great series with all the guys.
Cos he's what we call in UK a VVanker!! His part of the show is unwatchable, he´s like a parody of Dell Boy but not funny. I timeshift them and skip Mikes parts. Ed was Great and so was Ant and even the Mark was good and I learnt a lot about cars.
To be fair Ed China was best mates with him. I think he's godfather to Ed's kids. Mike always came across as a bit of a prat, I met him once and it didn't change my opinion, but perhaps he got more up his own chuff?
I dont care, what the hell .. they are loaded thats what I do know. ...blah blah blah...while watching this, I have an amazing idea folks! How about, making a show about finding the nations best mechanic, say for e.g each one gets points for speed, best method, best solving ideas and efficiency etc. Just like finding best chefs but as in for car mechanics. It would be amazing...the show could even have other trades, plumbers, electricians, and so on to find out the nations best of those too.
Ed made the show, not Mike as much as I liked him, I found Ed’s sections super interesting! Once it moved to the US I stopped watching, then started to watch it again when back in the UK, but I do miss Ed.
No-one wants to work with Brewer because he's impossible. Thinks he knows it all but actually seems to know very little. Anyone who has to stress how important they are usually isn't!
The show was a bit of a farce really, they never added the cost of the mechanics time to the cost of restoring the car, if they did they would have mostly lost money.
Brewer pee'd me off when he once ripped someone off buying his Boxster for just a thousand pounds. I know the man didn't have to sell it to him but it just didn't seem right.
Mike Brewer did the difficult thing which is conceiving the idea of , "Wheeler Dealers" ! WHY do they want to run anyone famous down ??? Mike Brewer makes the show ! So what he has had different mechanics !
Er , it's just a bit of entertainment As usual the armchair pundits who probably think they're the dogs bllx on football as well are a complete bore. Use the "off" button or watch the endless "game shows " available. Clearly never been in the trade yourselves... Just slip away you will not be missed..
So many people talk about Ed like he was god? They produce an hour long show that simply cannot cover all the work that goes into the cars. This is why a lot gets missed which is what fooked Ed off. Ed should really be the bigger man and admit this without making Mike out to be a tosser! I'd happily work with Mike, he's made many mechanics and many shows famous that many people don't know he's behind. Without wheeler dealers Ed would simply be a mechanic and not where he is now!
The show was about ed china on mechanical repairs that's why car enthusiasts watch it as for Mike brewer anyone can buy a banger but it takes a good mechanic to repair it there was no point in having brewer taking up time on the show not alone brewer thinking it was about him the show was ed china.
Most of these car shows are so repetitive the only thing that changes from show to show is the car .The first two characters played donkeys whereas Elvis has shows signs of trying to break the mould ...
There's more people watching now with Elvis, formula one mechanic,nice guy and mike is more relaxed the show will go on for some time,ant and ed cant touch Elvis,though they were good, Elvis has lifted the show👍
It was always Ed that made the cars valuable and gave a new value back to them! To be honest, watching Ed work on the cars was always my favourite part of the show!

I agree entirely…and call it Wheelers Wheelers (Who needs Deelers!)
He also uses examples, drawings and models to explain something. For a car noob like me, I could learn the most from Ant's explanations.
This explanation is spot on.
I wouldn't want to work with Brewer either!
Mike was just to full of s... were as Ed was the best did all work and worth listening to
His nickname to me is "squeek" or "motor mouth".
His weight over the years tells the other half of the story.

There's a reason used car salesmen are disliked, mike displays all of them.
If you divide the profit on each car by the man-hours input, it rarely works out at more than £50 an hour for a professional, quality restoration.

Most of these car shows are so repetitive the only thing that changes from show to show is the car .The first two characters played donkeys whereas Elvis has shows signs of trying to break the mould ...
There's more people watching now with Elvis, formula one mechanic,nice guy and mike is more relaxed the show will go on for some time,ant and ed cant touch Elvis,though they were good, Elvis has lifted the show👍
Totally agree
I know Mike. He's a great guy with time for his fans. This video is click bait.
Mike is awesome. His enthusiasm made the show. People forget the show would never have happened without Mike
Absolutely agree. Plus he clearly hams up his role.
