    Elvis is one hell of a mechanic but that repair on the arch was horrible. I don't think he has the experience Edd had with body repairs

    I saw the whole episode on TV. As he test drove the car Mike got on about how bad this car drove and sounded. And right he was! Just for a second you could see a rusty exhaust. But no sign of it on the list of repairs. Not to mention the engine. 113000miles and the didn't even pop the hood? And four full adjustable shocks for 200 quid? You must be kidding me! The producers must think the viewers are complete idiots! This is going on for quite a while and sadly it's not the only car show where they treat the audience like some uncritical dimwitts!

      I really didn't like the ones out in America simply because the work on the cars seemed a little compromised by what discovery wanted and to me everything seemed dramatised for no reason.
      I'm liking the latest series though, I think Elvis is a great mechanic and if you look on the positive side, we now have two great car shows to watch, one with edd and one with Elvis and Mike.
