Mike heads to see a dealer with the intention of buying a Rolls Royce, but when he realises that it's not mechanically sound enough for him, he takes a look at a Bentley instead.

Having spent most of my working life in the motor trade as a mechanic, I have arrived at the conclusion that the vast majority of vehicle salesmen and car dealers I have met through the years have only one skill. They are experts at talking shit. Frankly I no longer respect their 'profession'. Thumbs up to all the hard working mechanics in the world, you know what I mean 👍

I can’t have that said! How much money have you accumulated for you and your family being a mechanic? Mike brewer has 100% earned more, of course there’s more to life than material possessions but you can’t deny he provides a very nice lifestyle for his family and he doesn’t have any blisters or scraped knuckles or dirty greasy finger nails . I know who I would rather be. (Now get back in that garage and fix up some cars for the mike brewers to make a bomb on) 😆

The joy of having a Bentley is to sit in the back and have a picnic. No need to sit on the grass. My parents had endless new Rollers and when my father retired, every Friday, they would go off to explore beautiful Northumberland with Moet&Chandon and smoked salmon sandwiches. Never buy a Roller or a Bentley without picnic tables in the the back. Wonderful cars they are if you don't mind forking out for the petrol.

According to what the KZfaq channel Oscar's Garage said, the car was (famously) shipped to Australia and it was used for a company that later failed. After that, it was kinda used, but comments somewhere said that recently it was starting to rot badly underneath, and from there we don't know anything else.

@Henry B Generally yes. I have a 1964 Silver Cloud III, which I have owned since 1982. I was the second owner. It was in immaculate condition and I have kept it so. It is regularly checked for rust and anything that needs to be done is done. My biggest repair, apart from when it was hit by a lorry when it was (legally) parked was replacing the cylinder head gasket. I am 64 now and don't suppose I will ever have another car. Unlike the modern Rolls Royce or Bentley it hasn't depreciated. I paid £15000 for it and now it is valued at £75000.

I owned a used Rolls Royce Silver Shadow II and a Silver Spirit. Expectation was definitely greater than realisation. Biggest pieces of mechanical junk ever. Both cars had exactly the same problems. Oil leaks, half working electric aerial and worst of all if the car wasn’t used for a few days it wouldn’t start. I had to keep a biro in the car so that I could pull one of the air valves off,bung the pen in and then miraculously it’d start. Rust on the Shadow was insane. My advice,regardless of what Mike says is ‘Stay the hell away from these gas guzzling money pits’!!!!

The cheesy hammy 'acting' and odd scripted storyline, "I took a cheeky look at the Rolls on the way in" for example.... is the very reason this completely dated and tired format failed, Ed China was really the only reason anyone would ever watch... unfortunately Mike is painful to watch he tries too hard and yet still comes over somewhat unlikable underneath it all... instead of the kind of cheeky chappy persona that I think he's trying to cultivate. You can tell from their rampant use of Ed inthumbnails since his departure that there is a horrible feud going on there... and it's almost as if he's saying screw you Ed... you may have left but I'll still profit from your image... I think the sad thing is he's probably not a particularly nice individual.
