Ive found this series on French tv.. has anyone else watched it?

I've seen it in the "motoring" category on Discovery+, will give that a wee look between new episodes of Wheeler dealers with new chap Marc "Elvis" Priestley doing the work while Mike buys the cars then sells them back to the people who sold them to him in the first place (not in every episode to be fair).

Also worth a look is the New Zealand based show "Start Me Up," in which a couple of chaps find cars, Commercials, even a digger in one episode. The target vehicles are started for the first time in decades by the two affable presenters, who use some cunning bodges to wake the engines from their slumbers and then drive the subjects around some fields. There are two series of this, six twenty minute episodes each, it's on Amazon, among the repeats of Hamish Macbeth and every series of The Grand Tour. The presenters travel around NZ in a Range Rover (P38), but I'm guessing that it's not all that reliable as sometimes, they use a split new Hilux farm truck instead which is interesting** as these things are sold in NZ with a trayback rather than a more integrated pickup bed.

**- opinion, so don't go on at me if you'd sooner have an operation than see a HiLux at work.

Its a German chap who buys and sells military kit.. he also bought a boat, school buses from America and camper vans from Brazil.. its a catastrophe seems to be his catch phrase...sort of top gear road trip but with more breakdowns
