I've watched it a few times the car didn't look that bad until they dipped it
I live with fear everyday but sometimes she let's me go to car shows

Would liked to have seen a bit more of repairs.
Looked fantastic hope its not standing back outside after all that work.
Brought back memories when I did my 2002tii 10 years ago.

I have watched this programme nearly all the time when its on & thoroughly enjoy the show but I do wonder sometimes how they manage to do all the work that's needed in 3 weeks.

Think we have to accept there is some artistic licence - having restored cars like this - lucky if it took them 3 months but still an interesting show - that 02 must have blown the budget too - its TV lol

Microwave meal time 

back on topic - good show nice to see a BMW being done - but given they stripped the shell and rebuilt properly there were many man hours and plenty of running around - so maybe ignorance is bliss

In some respects it's a bit like that US show featuring Chip Foose called Overhaulin' which they claim to do in a week.  Mind you, we do see shots of umpteen guys and gals crawling all over the car doing various jobs.
