Ant falls for a 1989 Lotus Esprit but it's a gamble after losing £10k on his last Lotus restoration. His dad isn't happy when he finds out the car doesn't run. Plus, a bodged sunroof causes Ant a major headache. Structural cracks appear in the farmhouse.

Ant buys a 1968 Alfa Romeo Giulia with no steering. Duncan is not impressed as clutch trouble and a hole in the floor will add to the repair bill.
