Perhaps I should have used a smiley - Chris is an accomplished driver who would have no problem with my car (after all, he's used to almost 500bhp from his own car) It would simply be nice to get him in a modded Coupe to hear his thoughts

technics I need some sleep Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 3,486 London Tan	@Nigel, I would love to hear someone like Chris Harris or 5th gear review a 450-500 bhp coop, just out of interest. I don't mention anyone from top gear as I think they would just take the piss. What car does Chris Harris have, is it some sort of BMW? (Think I saw it in a magazine not so long ago, maybe 9 months) Now in the 400+ bhp club!
