Wheeler Dealers

Season 5

TV-PG

The hosts team up to find and flip serviceable used classic cars. Mike scours the Internet and local trade rags for bargain-priced modern classics needing attention. Edd China (and in later seasons, Ant Anstead) applies the elbow grease to bring the cars up to a nearly new condition, allowing Mike to "sell them on" for a profit.
