A good vid by Chris Harris.
 
Note the lap time of the fwd hot hatch against the new RWD M3, not bad.(32mins onwards)

Excellent video.. Got a lot of time for chris Harris IMHO think he is one of the best if not the best motor writer.. Just love that F12!!! Ever since clarkson done it on topgear. Would have one in a heartbeat.. Also just goes to show you with that Renault beating the M3..although in honesty I can't stand M3's...!

Yeah, I'm a big fan of Chris Harris. It's good that he's now got his own youtube channel after /drive went to /drive+ and started to charge for full length vids.
Shame he's left pistonheads though, maybe something else could be on the horizon, he is doing a bit for Goodwood although not sure if thats new news or not.

Excellent!

Although I don't think you'd ever get a girlfriend if you had a harness for seatbelts.Lol

Yeah I kinda liked it in white as well, not normally a white car man.

Glad you like the vid guys, have a look for /Drive on YouTube and look for Chris Harris in a sub section of the channel or look for Chris Harris new channel named Chris Harris funnily enough.

Enjoyed that, nice to see him being a hooligan, think I'd bob my pants doing that in cars with those kind of price tags and the speeds, I think I'm a hero inducing a slide at 30/40mph in 2nd, 120mph in 4th :eek:

I suppose it's a case of what you get used to, us mere mortals can only dream of that.

I don't know his driving history, as in if he was a racer but he seems to have good car control, mind you we don't get to see the out takes. :( seems like one of the lads though and loves to hoon. :thumb:

Does do some racing, a good rally driver too.
Won or come close to winning some big races against some of the best.

Of all the great cars that featured, I'd probably still take the Megane for all the real world everyday usable performance on the road, a real hoot to blast around on some B roads, M3's watch out!!

lozgti1 30 January 2015 01:32 PM

Somehow his camera team actually give you an idea of the insane speeds

Well done them!

Really enjoyed that. I think Chris harris's videos are awesome, he's is by far my favourite car reviewer.

And a Megane faster around a track than a M3 lol. These fwd hatches are evolving into proper sport car beaters in the last few years...

I wouldn't call an M3 a "Proper sports car" A Lotus Exige is a "Proper Sports car" ;)

Just for you Zip. :D

That's a fair point. But even you can't deny the M3 is a serious performance car.

lozgti1 03 February 2015 10:47 AM
