sorry wildchild lol, i saw your thread on CP and thought it related to me too so theived it.
i currently drive a 45bhp mk2 polo and i'm soon to purchase a 159bhp G40, obviously that's a big increase and i've never driven a car like that before.
has anyone had any experiences like that e.g big bhp increases and how you coped with the change?
i think i'm a good driver and i'm not gonna be risking anything till i've got the hang of it or i WILL die
Jump in bhp?

The first powerful car I got to drive was about 6months after passing my test when my dad sold his 911 - he let me drive it and was s**t myself but after a couple of miles i was used to it and all was fine from then on - no silly speeds or silly cornering but a big step up from what i was used to.
Just take it steady, i have a G40 and i was used to what its like after about 15-20mins.
