Another classic car show on now on "Dis Turbo" with the lovely Bernie (of Leepu chop shop fame) where they are restoring an MGB with some yank.They lifted the car and the rear axel fell out..... :lol: .Fuzz, give them a dig out.Of course, Bernie pushing his weight around as usual.

Unfortunately there are a few episodes of them ruining cars:

There are a few posts about it in the car SOS thread too.

Doesn't that happen all the time with an MGB?

You go off for a blast round the country lanes and the rear axle pops off into a hedge?

I've seen a few episodes and they're not too bad. I remember Bernie from "Chop Shop" (typical Cockney!). The other guy (Mario) is actually a Canadian.

I watched those before. I really do hope that Bernie is exaggerating for the cameras as he really does come across as an insufferable arse

I love the two chancer's on Loud N Fast .. 8-)

I think Bernie watched too many American Hotrods and fancies himself as being like the arrogant fella with the shaved head..can't think of his name... :roll: oh .yes i can.. Dwaine ! At least they built their cars properly though.Would love to see Dwaine , watch a Bernie episode :?

I'm enjoying Fast 'N' Loud too. Shame about their Mustang getting pranged as it looked damn good. There is lots of acting up for the cameras but the cars look amazing.

Classic car "rescue" is a lesson on how not to do it.
