Wheeler Dealers host Mike Brewer has issued a crucial warning to classic car owners after admitting he made a major mistake.<\/p>\n
The TV star revealed his own historic Porsche 911 was damaged after incorrectly storing the model over the winter.<\/p>\n
The 59-year-old told followers on X, formerly Twitter, that the vehicle had been stored in a tent last winter.<\/p>\n
However, this froze over as temperatures dropped which caused ice to blister the Porche\u2019s bodywork.<\/p>\n
He spun the camera around to show a pair of mechanics working hard to mend the damage in Brewer\u2019s own One Automotive garage in Warwickshire.<\/p>\n

My lovely Porsche 911.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve got the guys from Car Gods to come down because I\u2019ve got a few issues with the paintwork on the car. I put it in like a tent.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen I created this business during the winter we emptied the cars out and I put that car in a tent. This is a little warning to you, it was a brand new tent. When I put it in it froze up. It was like minus nine and it froze up.<\/p>\n \u201cObviously the material and the chemicals they use in the tent fabric when it defrosted, it defrosted onto the car. So it’s all rained inside the tent onto the car and it\u2019s blistered the paintwork.\u201d<\/p>\n DON’T MISS <\/strong> <\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

It’s got some fine swirls and scratches on it so we are just lifting them out with that. And we have got the matching medium cut pad.\u201d<\/p>\n Brewer then told mechanics that he wanted the Porsche to look as \u201cbest as it can do\u201d after the repair work.<\/p>\n Afterwards, the Wheeler Dealers host revealed to followers that he intended to take the beautiful machine to a couple of car shows before the end of the year.<\/p>\n CarGods admitted Brewer\u2019s car had a \u201cfew small marks\u201d but were confident they could \u201cmake it look incredibly glossy\u201d.<\/p>\n
