When I first saw the title of this thread I thought that it was going to end up in a similar vein to the infamous Plato thread. Great to see CH is a genuine in real life as he is in his videos.

What a top man, would love a Tvr Sagaris video Chris.
And re the Sagaris, it would be fantastic to have a "legends revisited" or similar video.

I'm sure there are many willing owners that will donate a car for the day.

Not sure what's better, meeting Chris or a drive in the McLaren.
The latter, by miles.

Amazing luck. Chris Harris comes across as a pretty down to earth fella, glad to not hear otherwise.

I guess the only issue for Chris would be the ramifications should there be an mechanical issue/crash.

Could be an insurance nightmare for Chris and the car owner.

Gutted I missed seeing the P1. I was apparently at a certain service station not long after he'd been there to fill up the P1. frown

Good story OP and well done monkey. Defiantly think PH has gone downhill since his demise, his videos were a highlight for me.
