    Defender in Horrible TV Show

    Familiar with the show 'Strippers Cars for Cash'?

    I've just started watching
    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spu7LIF_5mQ&feature=em-subs_digest-vrecs]Strippers Cars for Cash - S01E07 - Land Rover 90 v Mitsubishi Shogun - Season 1 Episode 7 - YouTube[/ame]

    4 Minutes in and It would appear they are stripping a defender and selling the parts. UK has a huge problem with defenders stolen and stripped. Not liking this so far...

    OH whats this! They just called the defender 'a farmers jeep!'

    I've never seen the show, but from your rave review I'm ok with that!

    Ha, ha ha. That looks like an awesome show, and I only watched the fist 30 seconds with no sound.

    Dodgy geezers in crombies and trillbies.

    Thuggish looking bloke in a transit van.

    Cars nearly slipping of stands and cruching people.

    Fourty quid for a car door?

    Race horse!?!

    I'd be mad if I wern't nickin' and strippin', eh? Get me some low life I wanna live the high life. Things like this are pretty tounge in cheek, I mean they're wearing costume. I don't think its sinister, its just entertainment. I've gotta watch it just to know what accents they're gonna have - I'm betting, top gog is cockney, blokes in the workshops brummy and cockney just because they would shy away from scouse.

    Found it entertaining (yes I watched the entire clip )

    The two dodgy sales blokes were straight out of the Arthur Daly school of buying & selling.

    Light hearted and not meant to be taken seriously.

    I did my Land Rover training to be an off road driving instructor with that Vince

    Full name Vince Cobley. You will see him in LRO a far bit.

    All I can say is I hope he got cash off him and got it before he gave him the parts
