To celebrate Wheeler Dealers' 20th anniversary, Mike, and Elvis mark another motoring milestone: the end of production for the Ford Fiesta. The boys take on the restoration of a Mark 1, but they're soon worried they've bitten off more than they can chew.
Peugeot 205A ride in a Peugeot 205 T16 inspires Mike's latest mission: he wants to buy a 205 Rallye. It's the UK version and massively under-powered compared with European models, but Mike reckons Elvis can easily upgrade the engine to beat its Eurospec counterpart.
Saab 900It's 10 years since Saab last made a car. Mike's found a soft-top 900 going cheap. But this car isn't running smoothly, the clutch is iffy, the turbo lags and the steering's woolly. Can Mike, and Elvis get this car back to its best?
Subaru BRZMike and Elvis are massive fans of turbocharged Subarus, and they're both baffled the company never produced a Scooby BRZ STI. So the pair is going to make one themselves, using the newest car Mike's ever bought on Wheeler Dealers.
Land Rover DiscoveryWith the price other Landies going through the roof, Mike reckons the Discovery is the next collectible model. He's found one, but it's got no MoT, and when Elvis takes a more detailed look, he discovers a load more rust problems that will keep him busy.
Audi RS 6Mike and Elvis take on one of their toughest challenges yet: can they make an Audi RS 6 estate car faster than a sports car? Mike reckons he's found one that could be a bargain, but Elvis isn't so sure when it almost crashes after a test drive.
Ford P100Mike decides to take a gamble on a Ford P100 imported from South Africa to Scotland. The truck looks lovely, but Elvis has to get the giant engine out to track down a mystery oil leak. Can they make this South African import properly at home in Britain?
Alfa Romeo GTVMike finds an Alfa Romeo GTV with some fails, but nothing that he reckons Elvis can't sort. He plans to go to Italy to recreate the GTV Cup, a race for amateur owners. Can they get the GTV ready for an Italian road trip?
Caterham 7Mike sneaks a Caterham Seven into the workshop to surprise Elvis. When Elvis sees it, he can't contain his excitement at the prospect of producing the ultimate Seven fit for modern-day motoring. But the size of the restoration job is bigger than expected.
Peugeot 405Mike's found a rare, 33-year-old Peugeot 405 while in Portugal. But finding parts for a three decade old car isn't going to be easy. Have Mike, and Elvis done the right thing by deciding to do up this motor in Portugal? And can they still turn a profit?
