I was told about it today. By all accounts it was a joke.

many mk2 escorts have been modded like that for years and as for the 90's styling.....

My god

What a let down
I thought great a new show doing so good stuff fuck was I wrong
I have seen jimmy in engine addicts ( not to bad )
But the other two well idiots
The women drive the car into a fuck off big rock
And the other guy walked over it and pissed on the window
Wtf is that about but to be fair he was a prick

There modern twist was a zetec
Nothing wrong with zetecs but they ain't modern anymore

And as for the paint job o my god that was just shit

They didn't show you them doing a load of the work either
It was like here's a mk2
Now here's a mk2 we have messed up

Just seems jimmy was all about talking while sat in front of the camera
While the others twated around

Disappointing

The bike was ok but they started with a new bike and the twat one
Only modded the tank seat and exhaust
So I the big picture he didn't do that much
And even tho he didn't fuck the bike up he was still a cock lol

Ended up turning it off

So don't know what they sold it for as they were after 30k lol



Disappointing is a understatement
But someone probably liked it
Maybe I was just hoping for to much from this show

Wasn't impressed, ruined a nice car, but to be fair the engine was an improvement, but the rest if i'd done that to my Mum's old Escort Mk2 she would disowned me!

Just watching it now. CAnt believe she crashed the escort and then that guy pissed on the Windscreen???? Halfway through first episode and might turn it off In a mo



To be fair I thought the escort was a nice car when done. Bike sounded awesome. It's a shame there's not more footage of the actual work being done like car sos. Just starting the mg episode now
