Experts Louise Gostelow and David Harper do a spot of sightseeing around Northern Ireland in an old VW Beetle, on the lookout for antique bargains.

We鈥檝e popped over the Irish Sea for a road trip that takes in all the delights that Northern Ireland has to offer. Antiques experts Louise Gostelow and David Harper are on the tourist trail in their classic Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet, seeing the sights and snapping up bargains.

David discovers a whole new way of haggling - the Ballymena Bargain - while Louise, who employs a more traditional negotiating technique, gets to grips with a tin toy till. But will either of them cash in when they get to auction?

David visits the oldest distillery in the world for a drop of 'uisce beatha', the water of life, while Louise heads to the coast to sample some seaweed. Then it鈥檚 off to the big city, Belfast, for an auction that goes on into the night.
