Brilliant....
Chris Harris lives by me......well about 3 miles away.....Seen him in all sorts of cars over the years. Not seen him for a few months but last one I saw him in was his Ferrari 512 TR...Got to say not a fan of that car looks wise.....He has had some very nice kit.
His old M5 gets services at the same place my M3 goes and it was there over a month having loads of work doing to it.

Where does you M3 get looked after Andy?
Harris is always around Abergavenny as well. Does quite a few of his videos on Chepstow - Usk road and up over B4560 @ Llangynidr. Met him a few times on an early morning blast. Always makes time for a chat, nice fella. Few months ago I was heading down A465 from Hereford at a fair old lick in the M135i with a Merc E63 AMG in hot pursuit. It pulled over into the same pub as me and Harris jumped out, grining like an idiot. All good fun.

Alex, I use Stuart at Forza GB in Chepstow....He was a BMW master tech at Cotswald in Gloucester and set up on his own in 2009. He serviced my CSL at Cotswald and since he has left he has serviced all my cars at Forza...What he doesn;t know about BMW isn't worth knowing. His rate are great and I wouldn't trust my M car to anyone else........
He has worked for BMW, Ferrari/Maserati, Lotus and TVR to name a few.....I can highly recommend him.

That would be a great experience! I personally prefer the '90s DTM golden era.
