chop shop discovery
i need a favour can the people who think leepu fucked up our scooby golf project and thinks me shaun and julian should have our own show on discovery moding cars tastefully. go on to the chop shop forum and say this cos i think we need a british show on moding cars to show the yanks we can do it to and better and not putting a v8 in everything like they do. we all mone about lepu and his lash ups but unless discovery know what u think there wont be a show doing what we want to see. there is some people who left there opinions on the vagas car and discovery have read them and they thinks the sun shines out of his arse. i know lepu reads them and im going to see him on tuesday night at the end of show party and we would love to wipe the smug look off his face. cheers lee

What??????
Get rid of the eyesores & deathtraps created by Lepu & Bernie????
And replace with a pukka UK modding programme, producing cars that appeal to the UK modding scene?????
Surely not..........

Also isn't it a bit foolish to bite the hand that feeds you?

I think the chances of a serious 'modding' show are very low... Most people including me only watch the program so I can see what Leepu has done to the car.
It's supply and demand, we demand the clueless people, discovery supply them.

i watched an episode the other night ,
i dont think you lads have the same " personality " of bernie and lepu ,
and honeslty imo i think thats a big factor of why people tune in ,
same as orange county choppers ,
there not building the best bike in the us cutom scene , but its the relationships between the people on camera that make you watch it , .
good luck if it comes off

That subaru / golf was looking like it was going to be a brilliant car and then lepu ruined it
Keep up the good work lads.
Wish there was a show on telly without all the overacting bullshit like american chopper going on, most peeps just like the technical bits i think

As someone from an engineering background and seeing some of the components used to build these cars I shudder at the thought of what death traps some of these cars are (6" wheel spacers..............arghhhhh). It's embarrassing to think that this show might be seen in countries like the USA where they do things properly "America Hotrod with Boyd Coddington, and the likes of Chip Foose".........and we come up with the crap shown in "Chop Shop".
What we need is something along the lines of the Boyd Coddington, Chip Foose programmes.
At the moment, we give the impression that were just a load of Bodgers here in the UK. It's embarrassing.

They should make Ovehaulin UK. Chip Foose strips a car, removes all the rust and puts it back together to (What seems) a very good standard!
American Chopper is good and Ive just finished going through all 5 seasons to catch up. American Chopper is filmed how many days a year? Each project takes around 4 weeks and they reduce it to 45-90mins viewing, showing the best bits. It makes Paul Junior look proper lazy (Leaving most work to Vinne in the first 4 seasons and now Rick, Mike, etc do most of it). It makes good viewing cause its not consistantly in the workshop or if it is, it shows they pratting about.
Chop Shop is the biggest load of wank Ive ever seen! I watched the one where the bloke wanted a bacon sandwich car made, but they turned it into a nice looking car (Can't remember what it was). The programme didn't interest me in anyway as they were not building anything decent and it didn't show hardly any of the work carried out, just the people building the car and they bored me rigid!
If your gonna do a UK one go to somewhere like Reyland, Harvey Gibbs, MAD, Andrew G, etc and get them to build proper project cars or show different tuners/builders in each season.
