Chop Shop: Well, I saw Chop Shop on TV some time ago and since I am interested in the mechanics in cars, decide to buy the first series. As expected it is utter mayhem in Brick Lane once Bernie and Leepu get together. Despite racial and cultural differences, they 'gel' well and create wonderful new models from scrap.
What I feel should have been part of every episode is the exact price that they managed to get for their 'creation'. This was sorely missing. Maybe if there is a Series 2, it might be a good idea to incorporate that. As far as Bernie's "colourful" language is concerned, I wonder if his English is usually so inter-laced with expletives !!I know for a fact that Leepu has 'acquired' those expletives to 'gel' in, but that is what gives the series its distinctive character.
It might also be a good idea to avoid 'repetitions' of points by the narrator, but I understand that as a series created for TV, a link is essential for a viewer who unable to watch it at one go.
Definitely better than 'Overhaulin' which, I think is another series produced by the same production house. Well worth the money, if you enjoy cars and their 'creation' - if you understand what I mean!
When is Series 2 coming, if at all??
