Pimp My Ride Uk Version.

[blinkpip]

Is crap compared to the U.S.
The presenter is stupid and acts like a fool and the cars they do up look shit and chavy.

Anyone else seen this shit.

Its so cringe worthy it's brilliant.

Westwood can just about pull it off on radio but in the flesh he looks and well is a 45 year old lanky man that has the accent of a ghetto pimp from the US.

To top it off he pulls out all the Xibit style camera angles and fingery pokery from the US version.

Then there’s the mechanics.  Different class again.  Where the US version has the massive hardcore looking chaps the UK version has white ageing chaps or ubergeeks attempting to talk US street slang as well with a tomboy bird thrown in.

To top it off every one so far has looked bloody awful.  Straight out of the boy racer chavster scene.  The mods on the US version usually look quite good but sat on Fiat Pandas they just look ridiculous.

The reaction at the end has me in stiches.

The best bit is when they answer the front door at the beginning.

Westwooood is bit of a strange one though. Getting on a bit, surely should be settling down instead of trying to be some rap star.

Westwood is great. Funniest bloke ever.

BE PART OF THAT!

Haven't seen the uk version but seeing the promo it looks superb.

The american version is cringeworthy shit anyway.

I think Xzibit is class at doing the U.S version and it wouldnt have mattered who they got for our one as it just isnt the same as West Coast Customs. :-))(

and the fact its that stupid haired, wank car producing muppet jamie shaw modding the cars makes it worse.
