I first started hating the wheeler dealer guy when I heard him say "MitsibUshi" instead of Mitsubishi. I hate him more and more each time I see him, not to mention his constant leaning/sitting on cars. I'll need therapy soon.

Bollox Brewer says in that clip that "fitting 17's makes it a much better driving experience"

I hate to be picky but what utter sh1te. I got 17's on mine and it certainly does not improve the driving experience. E30's are much happier on smaller rims IMHO.


They look nice though. :)

Mike Brewer is a bit of a twat.. Can't stand him.

However your 17's comment is not strictly true.. However that would be OT..

well despite all it's faults {brewer etc} the zone gets a mention,btw i watched this episode and many others before i owned an e30 and never thought of buying one. it was eccy gti fwd wrongun back then.and peanut butter does work as a color restorer on corsa's ka's etc many mpg to be had per jar and the crunchy one is favorite for the task.

and this is a big repost etc,
but still comical .

watch the series Fi,
on one money spinner brewer applied peanut butter to a faded plastic bumper and it completely changed it for the good.
very odd looks from the Jone's though when i did it.

better than most bumper restorers i've tried,
i'm sure it's coz i'ts oil based.now the crunchy's only best on grained placca so i'd go SMOOOTH on e30 moulds :wink:

Wrong..

You can get real 17" 'Pina's.. They were available for the Z1 RLE, rare as fook, about 2k a set if they come up..


Sadly 99.99999% of e30's running 17" 'Alpina's' Are running Burger King reps :puke: :poke:

I quite like wheeler dealers but you have to take mike brewer with a pinch of salt. Edd does good work and they do seem to get there hands on cheep cars espesially in the latter series's. I would have snapped up the quatrro from the last series. :P
