Storage Hunters UK

Postby arranj » Tue Oct 13, 2015 10:41 pm

Was on tonight - for those fans of Sean Kelly: http://uktvplay.uktv.co.uk/shows/storag ... ch-online/

Skip to 11:20 minutes - and again at 21:10 minutes - where one of the bidders gets a DeLorean "under the tarp" for £2500 - quite believable ;), except for the fact that it works lol.
Seems to have a UK plate on it - can almost see it in one shot - but don't know who's it is. It's an auto though with an square front plate - must narrow it down. From memory they tend to film in the south. He says it is in Oxfordshire at the beginning of the show.

Here's out very own Keith with the man himself last month. I don't think it's Keith's car though.

I think I've figured out who's it is.

It is Ollie's - used to be Jason's before Ollie restored it, and is still Ollie's now - unless if course you believe that any part of Storage Hunters is real...! ;)
The USA version though is quite entertaining.

I haven't seen the UK version but the US version really makes it look like you could stumble across the crown jewels abandoned in a storage locker, that the queen just stopped payments on.

But after a few episodes, they become very samey...

I prefer American Pickers, who also found a D a few years ago

Yeah I like that show, did you see the one where they found a huge original DeLorean Dealership sign in the ground in a junkyard?
