I know he tested a 95' Willaims - Reanult touring car at Silvertone, he said the difference in power was big (between an f1 car) but the braking was about the same.

That was all the info I could find too, but I was watching a review of the 1990 season and he was mentioned a couple of times.

I can't remember David Coulthard driving a touring car, one thing which i would suggest to him, turn to Touring Cars as it is much more fun then boring old F1

Coolthud was one of many driver to partner Cleland in the first years of the Astra (1989-ish).

Going by the BTCCs past history with ex-f1 drivers, we should see him in a few years.

Come off it, he doesn't like overtaking, so why would he come to a series that has some?

He drove the rear wheel drive development Cavalier in 1990 for a few races until he broke his leg in a Formula Vauxhall accident.

I don't remember DC driving a touring car, though
I do recall Colin McRae driving a BMW M3 in 1991. He even got disqualified at Knockhill for dangerous driving....... |

McRae was DQ'd for punting Matt Neal stockcar style in 1992, when he was driving a Prodrive 318is. He was pretty spectacular driving it, left foot braking and sliding it.
 Here's DC in the Cavalier 1990 |
