No - you can still buy 356 cab's for $75K USD and Ferrari Dino's for just over a $100K.

Doing a quick google search - I see they still make the programme.

Yes - he went a bit quiet after being offered 2 good cars, maybe he needed his wife's permission??

I watched that channel solid from 2008 to 2012. I'm not subscribing until they put new programs on.

Fair play for honesty though Pel! Early contender for the Macca cup if you make next year's NITT.

Certainly beats pushing the brake pedal to bleed the clutch....

I now feel better about the mesh I installed in my bumper, then found (thanks to someone pointing it out) that I'd installed one of the three sections "upside down", in that the pattern was inverted compared to the other two pieces. The second install was much quicker than the first

You'd be glad to find that though - better than the niggling thought of having a car that had experienced a head on hit.

Mine too. Haven't really given it a good watching yet to figure out which programs are worth it. There seems to be a fair share of redneck yankie iron stuff but I see fifth gear advertised which isn't too bad. I did catch a good episode where they semi hot rodded a Lotus Europa - Chip Foose I think.

Enjoyed Wheeler Dealers the most but I think it's almost finished.

We figured as much. I can't sit down for long (rather be doing something) and the others are either gaming or using Apple TV.

Judging by the regular subscription calls I'd say it's a sunset product.
