Pimp My Ride Uk: AWFUL!

Did anyone else happen to see the premiere episode the other night on MTV? It has to be the worst show ever, im which I will demonstrate with a few comparisons:

Pimp My Ride (USA) Pimp My Ride UK

Sunny, blue skies, decent backdrop Raining and dull
Escalades, hot rods etc. Vauxhall Novas,Ford Fiestas etc
Xzibit Tim Westwood (wanabee black guy)

Im not saying that Pimp My Ride USA is good, but this is just embarassing. I hope to god that this won't air in the US.

Westwood is a joke.
In the USA Pimp my Ride the mechanics have some personalities which are cool whereas the UK version has a group of mechanics that try to copy their American counterparts and look like d**ks tryin to copy.
Thats MY humble opioion

Not the cars they "pimp", but the cars in and around the workshops.

I shouldn't even waste my time reading this...........PMR is simply crap. They do everything for the looks but nothing at all to improve what's under the hood. It's a show about a bunch of idiots messing around with a piece of trash.

News flash: Most people don't care about performance, as long as their car gets them from A to B in a timely and comfortable manner.

The people behind Pimp-my-Ride is a joke, it's a good concept, that was never worked out right.
