History
Built by Vic Lee Motorsport and raced in the 1992 British Touring Car Championship by Tim Harvey, except for the final race of the year at Silverstone when it was used by Steve Soper.
In 1993 it was sold to Team Dynamics and driven by Matt Neal in the British Touring Car Championship.
It was sold in 1997 to Team Mobimech and fitted with a 3.2-lire 6-cylinder engine.
Between 1998-2003 the car would be used in the Swedish SLC endurance race series. It's believed the car then spent time in Denmark and Norway, before being brought back to the UK and sold to Rick Michels and eventually acquired by Warren Good and shipped to New Zealand, where its original identity was revealed and was re-built and returned to its original 1992 British Touring Car Championship livery.
