Student Takes on Master

Episode 11 of 25

Debut road tripper Hettie Jago takes on regular dealer David Harper. The pair start out in Scotland with Β£1,500 each and a 1980s Mercedes 280 SL.

Auctioneer, dealer and road trip greenhorn Hettie Jago goes up against David Harper, the old hand still rocking those multicoloured trews. Hettie, Somerset-born and currently residing in Nottingham, and Barnard Castle’s David have a 1980s Mercedes 280 SL for their shopping extravaganza.

Our pair begin with Β£1,500 each, and the winner will be the expert who wins the most auctions from their five trips to the sale room.

The rummaging starts north of the border in the fair city of Perth, where Hettie gurgles for joy at a pair of fish jugs and David competes on the animal front with a beaded tapestry of man’s best friend. But who will rule the road trip this time around?
