help Wheeler Dealers FAQ
Do Wheeler Dealers restorations include the mechanics' labor costs?
The on-screen budget traditionally emphasizes the vehicle's purchase price and parts rather than charging a commercial hourly labor rate. That distinction matters because a project shown as profitable could cost much more if every workshop hour were billed.
Why did Edd China leave Wheeler Dealers?
Edd China left after the production moved toward reducing the workshop portion of the program, a change he said affected the detail of the repairs. Ant Anstead subsequently became Mike Brewer's mechanic, followed later by Marc Priestley.
Does Mike Brewer really sell the restored cars at the end of each episode?
The program is built around Mike buying a used vehicle, the workshop repairing it, and the finished car being offered for sale. Transactions are edited for television, so the displayed margin is not a complete business profit calculation.
Why are some Wheeler Dealers seasons filmed in the United States?
Production relocated to Southern California for several seasons, giving the team access to American cars and a dry-climate vehicle market. The series later returned to the United Kingdom with Mike Brewer and Marc Priestley.
