RMC Découverte has ordered a fourth season of its Pernel Media-produced adaptation of Discovery’s Wheeler Dealers for the French market.

The new 12-episode season of Wheeler Dealers France will see car dealer Gerry Blyenberg and expert mechanic Aurélien Letheux once again buying, fixing and selling iconic cars in the hope of turning a sizable profit. It will also feature a brand-new and expanded garage, equipped with the latest mechanical technologies for the car enthusiasts. Wheeler Dealers was originally produced for Discovery UK by indie producer Attaboy and has run for 16 seasons to date.

Samuel Kissous, president of Pernel Media, said: “Wheeler Dealers France is now a proven success in France and it’s great to see the show growing from strength to strength over three series. This latest series brings the total of prime-time episodes produced to 46 and demonstrates Pernel Media’s ability to turn an international format into a successful returnable brand. We’ve made a huge effort to refresh the show in series four with the launch of a whole new garage in a brand-new location, consisting of more space and state-of-the-art mechanical technology.”

Julien Bergeaud, senior VP and general manager of Discovery France, said: “We are excited to bring Wheeler Dealers France back for another season. This season, Gerry and Aurélien bring back their expert insight and reveal some of France’s most fascinating cars.”
