Out of curiosity, what is the lightest four seater or 2+2 coupe?

Lets say it must have at least 150-200 bhp, plus room for two adults and one child. Could be old school or new. That's it...

You could fit 2 adults and a child in a McLaren F1. That's quite light.

A lightly breathed on Renault 5 GT Turbo would give 150 bhp.

I guess around 700 kg.

A Mitsubishi Evo RS model? 300bhp, between 1170kg [Evo I RS] and 1310kg [Evo IX MR].

Five seats and a big boot.

Cerbera, - cant be hugely heavy, but even if it is has plenty of power to overcome any handicap
edit, wikipedia tells me cerbera is 1100kg

another option could be morgan 4 seater, weighs in at about 900kg, with either 145 or 220hp depending on 4 or 6 cylinders
