Just don't think it will be the same without X to the Zee fronting it ..... 
If X came over i'd want to hug him and go for a beer, if Westwood knocked on my door , i'd just want to punch him and send him away......

Exactly how I feel! Will still watch it though just for a laugh, I hope they treat it as a joke like X and the guys do and don't actually take it seriously

Err so who is Tim Westwood then? Haven't seen the UK version yet but as Aswall states the original US version with Xzibit is a real laugh. What really amuses me is the owners let their cars get into such a state then blame the vehicle. If your car is dirty then wash it!!! heh. I suspect that I will be laughing at the UK version but for very different reasons.
*EDIT* I can just picture Andy's (guy with face piercings) equivalent, "well I'd choose some 22" Chrome Giovana's"..........for a Corsa

This is Tim(othy):
Think of him as an Ali G without the jokes, but with the same ridiculous fake accent. The only difference is that he isn't doing it for laughs.....

PMRUK - what a pile of s**t !!
really really disappointed - it looked like it was filmed by kids, Westwoods dialogue was scandalous to say the least and finally to look at all those 'designers and sprayers' etc with names like Pinky and Biff .......
Worst was, everyone was trying to exactly imitate their WCC counterparts, don't these people have any real personalities, the 'boss' looked like he should be cutting hair.....
And then Bethan, my god, in the US one, they pull up outside really poor neighbourhoods, houses built out of bits of wood etc, but no, Bethan lives in a half million pound four or five bedroom house by the look of things and then pleads that she can't afford a stereo , Please ......
I'll stick to US PMR thanks very much, hopefully the ratings over the next few weeks will show just how badly they have messed up and it will be canned before another season gets filmed.....
Rant over ...

Yeah that's what I was thinking and who & where are the 'professionals' that do the work. Jamie? the team leader does look like a hairdresser (no offence) but West Coast Customs have got a massive reputation in the customising business what's going on here??? Hope they don't show it in the US, my cousins won't let me live it down....
