In a video shared on X/formerly Twitter by his wife Michelle, the Wheeler Dealers host said: “I’m in a good mood at the minute because some lovely guy called Abdullah who works at Meta has properly got the page back.
“No more pornographic images, no more hackers, no more scammers, no more nonsense, it’s back in our control.
“You’re safe to go and follow the page again to keep you abreast of everything going on in the world of Wheeler Dealers.
“It felt like we’d been burgled, we lost a quarter of a million people on the page.
“We have a new series coming up on April 29, a global show, I’m over the moon it’s going to be the best you’ve ever seen, I can’t wait.”
He also showed off his new Porsche classic 964 911 turbo 3.3 motor which will be going to auction soon.
Fans were excited to hear the news, one penned: “Here’s drinking a big cheers to you, well done recovering the page.”
Another added: “We will always support you mate.”
“Excellent news,” agreed a third.
Others chimed in and wrote: “Good news”, “that’s fantastic”, “yeah finally”.
‘SCUMBAGS’
It comes after Mike publicly named and shamed the “scumbags” who hacked his Facebook account and put him through hell for months.
The Wheeler Dealers host previously called on his supporters to help get revenge after hackers posted a series of “lurid” images on his page.
Mike was left seething when he discovered the social media channel had been used to post pornographic content to his army of more than 800,000 followers.
He fumed: “The scumbags who stole it are just after money and clickbait and there’s nothing I can do about it.
“They’re completely in control, I can’t turn it off, I can’t turn it over I can’t get it back it’s completely gone.”
But now the issue has been resolved, with bigger and better projects on the horizon.
The car enthusiast announced the start date of his new series after wrapping up production.
The much-loved programme now looks set to push boundaries and search for broken-down bangers in pastures new.
Mike also revealed his new “beautiful” summer collection of vintage classics.
He gave an exciting sneak peak into an upcoming fleet of incredible bangers.
