Car S.O.S. is one of those innovative and original car shows that only the Brits can do well. It celebrates classic car culture and restoration but with a twist ... restoring the car for an owner that's fallen on hard times and without him knowing about it.

This was the final episode of Season 5 (and perhaps the very last episode ever?) and I was waiting for weeks for it to air since it had been revealed that they would do an Rx7 (they had done a Datsun 240Z the previous season).

Alas, it was not the expected SA since that would have been more typical of the era of cars they dealt with. It was a Japanese imported 1993 FD, but hey still fun to watch!

The entire episode is all there. Try downloading if you were just viewing it online. Perhaps you have a slow connection or too many people were watching it at the same time.

Thanks for uploading.

Couple of thoughts:

I think the son was thinking of pearl rather than "fleck" for the paint particles. That would've looked a lot smoother and iridescent rather than sparkly.

These guys and Wheeler Dealers have had luck in not only skipping a rebuild, but hunting down EFI issues. I was expecting a lecture on repairing older engines vs newer ones.
