It's the ideal place for Leepu's design visions to mix with Bernie's East End mechanical skills. Bernie deals with the practicalities of transforming bangers into blingers, whilst Leepu spearheads the creativity behind the cars. However, Leepu's ambitious design visions threaten Bernie's sanity and also the future of the garage. Will British and Bangladeshi cultures clash when they create motor mayhem?

Épisode 7 - Johnny Vegas's Volcano Car 1

17 novembre 2008

Bernie, Leepu and the Chop Chop team have landed a new commission with Guinness-swilling master of gauche, actor and comedian Johnny Vegas. He wants a mobile volcano in which he can play batman to solve all the world's ills and which will make him feel as if he's sitting on his gran's lap after she's eaten nine chilli peppers. Other than that, it's got to be a classic-shaped Volkswagen Golf - albeit an uber-powerful four wheel drive one (Johnny already drives a Golf R32). Chop Shop mechanics and panel beaters, Julian, Lee and Shaun embrace the project with wild optimism - sourcing the engine and four-wheel drive running gear from a 300hp Subaru Impreza, the like of which has found fame on the world rally stage. Trouble is, the example they've chosen has been in a major smash - in fact it's the most wrecked donor car they've ever bought. Have they finally bitten off more than they can chew ?

Épisode 8 - Johnny Vegas's Volcano Car 2

24 novembre 2008

Bernie, Leepu and the Chop Shop team continue their quest to build supercars for superstars and next they turns their hands to a Volcano Car for actor and comedian Johnny Vegas. He wants a ‘mobile volcano’, an uber powerful boys toy that is based on his favourite shaped car, the classic Volkswagen Golf. Johnny already drives a Golf R32 and he wants it to eat his Chop Shop version's dust. So a four wheel drive monster begins to take shape as panel beaters Julian, Lee and Shaun source the engine and four-wheel drive running gear from a 300 horse power Subaru Impreza. If Johnny wants power, he’s certainly going to get it with that engine. But there’s a snag, the Impreza they've chosen has been in a major car crash and it’s the most mangled donor car they've ever bought. It only cost £700 but will all its bits work once they're extricated from the wreck? Will the boys be able to fit the powerful four wheel drive Subaru parts into the modest front wheel drive chassis of a VW Golf? And with Leepu not one to have his designs outdone by the mechanics, he decides to use some artistic license and alter the shape of the Volkswagen, without consulting Johnny…

Confused? Not as much as Leepu is as he tries to blend the two designs into one.
