"Pimp my ride UK"

This was on last night, C5, thought I'd give it a watch.

What a diabolical program ... who is that Westwood gimp trying to kid? He's some 30 odd year old skinny white bloke who thinks he's a 20 year old black rapper. He looks ridiculous, and the way he talks makes me laugh.

So much bent wrist, fling your arms about, 'bling' action and pointing at the camera when he talks. It was like some kind of wind up.

Seen the American version before, never really liked it though some of the cars turned out surprisingly well ... this was just ... wrong. And they pimped a 1.3 litre Nissan Sunny ... nnnnnice ...

Westwood's claim : "You now own the best looking Nissan Sunny in the world, man!!!"

Dreams really do come true ...

I see this is on tonight Pimp My Ride UK :s cant say ill be watching it but after it we have...


Pimp My Ride
Car makeovers. Host Xzibit customises a 1985 Chevy Suburban with a make-up kit and a sink in the centre console.

Question is do i watch it instead of Eastenders :P

Yup, you've got to laugh at something so... well, silly!

Aye but the office is actually funny with it ...

He does some average mixing of boring rap songs - I'd like to throw him on a chainsaw.

Anyway, Pimp My Ride UK is a horrific show, and even rivals The Office in terms of sheer cringy-ness. Love it.

If by 'great', you mean 'cringe-worthy' ... :)

I don't know who the hell Westwood is, or why he's supposedly famous (Does he do anything aside from present Pimp My Ride UK? Do I care? Not really!), but he looks like Tom Hanks wearing clothes that obviously don't fit him... gives me the impression Forrest Gump just lost a whole load of weight and is out of his mind on God-knows-what!

That said, it's great TV! :D

Yo yo, chill with all the hating on my homie Westwood...

(ETC...)

I actually think Westwood has become a hilarious parody of almost every black wannabe in the country...I think you were more then generous with your assesment of his being in his 30s though, he's been on the Hip-Hop scenece for at least the last 25 years, so I'd guess he's over 40 at the very least...

As for PMRUK...I like the fact they choose typically British cars to change from run-down to ridiculous...

Can't stand him either I've never listened to his radio show and never watched any of his programmes.

"The best Nissan Sunny in the country".

Not something to shout about!

Can't stand Westwood on TV or Radio. He's such a joke, but in a bad, painfull way. DJ to the Chav massive...

A lot more entertaining? He's so bad it hurts. He should stick to radio, where he's not half as annoying. He thinks he's cool, but he looks and talks like a complete idiot.

Xzibit and the US show are far better.
