Wheeler Dealers Mike Brewer to ‘save’ classic Porsche after cryptic social media post


Wheeler Dealers star Mike Brewer has suggested he could “save” a classic Porsche left to rot in a garden after a cryptic tweet on social media site X, formerly Twitter.

Fans brought the dilapidated Porsche 911 to Mike’s attention through the social media platform with Mike appearing keen to intervene.

The historic model was photographed bolted to someone’s overgrown garden in a horrifying state.

Ivy was growing around the wheel arches with thick moss and trees covering the front bonnet.

The iconic model was spotted by X user and car specialist @GriffinMilitary who uploaded the image on Wednesday evening.

He followed with the caption: “Is it just us, or does it make you really sad seeing classics like this left to rot away? Such a shame!”

Hours later, a fellow X user tagged Mike in the post with the TV star later suggesting he could take in the car for restoration works.

The Wheeler Dealers star has a soft spot for the iconic German marques and has a similar 911 as part of his own collection.

Replying to the message, Mike simply posted: “I’d save it” followed by a thumbs up emoji.

Fans quickly called on Mike to purchase the Porsche and give the iconic classic a full makeover for the next series of Wheeler Dealers.

@ChrisLawlorDJ posted: “Do it. Do it. Do it!!”

@jennysturgess1 added: “I knew you would!”

Meanwhile, X user @aj_Horsham claimed Mike could use the help of fellow Wheeler Dealers host Marc Priestley in working on the car.

He wrote: “A 2 part special for Wheeler Dealers due to work involved. I’m sure @f1elvis would love this one. I mean the paintwork only need a cloth and a bit of polishing.” (sic)

Classic Porsche 911’s are among the most sought-after models on the market with average prices around the £39,000 mark.

Previous data from the Historic Endurance Rallying Organisation and Endurance Rallying Association (HERO-ERA) revealed the Porsche 911 was the UK’s most valuable classic car.

The group found that examples bring in around £900million to the UK economy with around 23,000 models still in circulation.
