Whoa! A Niva with alloys! Cool!!
No, seriously. I saw what happened when thye tried to copy Top Gear in Bulgaria - utter disaster! The presenters all tried to copy Jeremy and his humor, which I am sorry only works if you are British. And then there was the problem of budget. The most expensive car they tested on the test track (read: deserted military airfield, with tarmac that hasn't been maintained for years) was a SL65 AMG which they borrowed from a dealership. They didn't dare drive it fast or spin the wheels, because the tires costed $600 and they didn't want to ruin them. Pathetic!
