In this season, Mike and Edd score many opportunities to work with the best of the classics, including a Jensen Interceptor, Ford Sierra Cosworth, VW T2 Panel Van, BMW 840, Triumph Stag and more.

WHEELER DEALERS episode descriptions:

Jensen Interceptor 
Mike wants a classic Jensen Interceptor. Brand new, the car costs as much as a house, so if he does find one for his £5,000, Edd will have to struggle to make it worthy of the road.

Ford Cosworth 
Mike is after a Ford Sierra Cosworth, which looks like a family vehicle but runs like a race car. But with only £5,000 to spend, will his plan stall?

VW T2 Panel Van 
Mike hunts down a classic camper but impossibly high prices force him to settle for a less popular panel model. Can Edd realise the ambitious plans for its upgrade?

BMW 840 
It sounds like the ultimate 90s supercar bargain and Mike couldn't be more pleased with his V8, but when he sees the state of it, Edd doesn't feel as enthusiastic.

Triumph Stag 
Mike tries to find a rust-free classic Stag, but it is harder than he thinks. Edd will have to keep costs super low for any chance of a profit on this one.
