In this episode of Wheeler Dealers, hosts Mike Brewer and Edd China take on the task of restoring a TVR S2. The car was produced by TVR, a British sports car manufacturer known for producing high-performance vehicles, from 1986 to 1991.
The TVR S2 is a two-seater sports car with a fiberglass body and a powerful V6 engine. It was designed to be a lightweight, high-performance sports car that could compete with other high-end sports cars of its time. The car features a sleek, aerodynamic design that is both stylish and functional.
The hosts begin their restoration project by inspecting the car and looking for any signs of damage or wear. They take the car apart and inspect all of its components, from the engine to the body. They discover that the car has been poorly maintained over the years and will require a complete overhaul.
The first step in the restoration process is to rebuild the engine. The hosts remove the engine and take it apart, inspecting each component for damage or wear. They replace any parts that are worn or damaged and rebuild the engine to make it more powerful and efficient.
Once the engine is rebuilt, the hosts turn their attention to the suspension and brakes. They replace worn out components and install new, high-performance parts to improve the handling and stopping power of the car.
The body of the car is in need of some repairs as well. The hosts repair any damage to the fiberglass body and repaint it to give it a fresh, new look. They also install a new set of alloy wheels, giving the car a more modern and stylish look.
As the restoration process nears completion, the hosts take the car for a test drive to see how it handles on the road. They are pleased with the results, noting that the car has been transformed from a worn out sports car to a high-performance machine.
In the final scene, the hosts put the car up for sale and soon find a buyer who is thrilled with the restored TVR S2. The hosts shake hands with the buyer and say goodbye to their latest restoration project, knowing that they have once again succeeded in turning an old car into a high-performance machine.
