Pimp my ride UK...AAAHHHHHHH!
Well who else has seen Pimp my ride UK? I have just seen my 1st one and it is SO bad it's unreal. Who the hell is the bloke hosting the
show...bizare!!!
Won't be watching that again. At least the Americans do it right, we just cant do it the same way. It's so bad it's funny!

That's Westwood from Radio 1 (who thinks he is black).
Each to their own - looked like bunch of tits to me.

We should have a UK version of 'Overhauled', at least they do things properly.

I recommend American Hot Rod. Quality viewing!
If you've seen the Morris Minor (which I quite liked - the car that is) wait until you see the MK2 Golf. Nothing that you can't see in
any of the VW mags.
As for the hearse......!! :s

I have to say the work they do on the show is first class though. The interior work especially is better than WCC.
Tim Westwood totally spoils it and sticking silly haircuts on midlands greasemonkeys just makes me cringe.

Tim Westwood = total and utter forking winker. Words cannot convey the sheer disgust that I feel when I hear him on the radio.
I think suitable training for olympic sprinters would consist of inserting earphones playing him into the ears of athletes and putting the off button
at the other end of the track

Is he the tosser who has the explosions going off all of the time and shouts unrecognisable sh1te. Yes - agreed - full on muppet.
His Radio show has been the low point of my build. Im please ive got a CD player in the workshop. Some of the best alternive type shows imo have been
Zane low and the guys who do the bangrer (spelling?) stuff.
Overhaulin Uk would be a good idea if we can get a fit looking petrolheadbird to do the presenting. Who would you recommend?

Westwood speak:
The most worrying thing that I've heard regularly uttered by Mr Westwood: (incidentally who's father was a Priest apparently)
"Go hard or go home!" WTF????!!!!! - I kid you not.
Jodi Kidd gets my vote for the fit petrolhead btw.

the one that hosts it in america
american things like that would never work in england, as the target audiences appear to have completely different tastes.
a pimp would never be seen in the cars that come from pimp my ride uk, mainly because they've tried to tailor the concept to suit the british
max power chav nutsack that you can see in any high street in any town across the country
don't push for british versions, just enjoy what we can import.

Tim(othy) Westwood is a middle-aged (born 1958) white man who pretends to be a black yoof.
He was the inspiration for Ali G.
He dad was Bishop of Peterborough, Innit!
