Last UK outing for Peugeot 406
The ex Paul Radisich 1998 Peugeot 406 is to make its final race in the UK before taking up residence with its new owner in New Zealand.
Kiwi Stephen Grellet will race the car in the UK for the final time at the HSCC Legends of Brands Hatch Superprix in July.
The MSD built machine is set to join an ever increasing collection of classic Super Touring cars in New Zealand.
This car, chassis PR005 along with its sister car PR004, moved to Australia in 1999 for privateer Paul Grimm, but was never raced and kept in storage. Both cars returned to the UK as recently as 2013. Patrick Watts owning PR004 that he raced with reasonable success while in Australia and Historic racer Malcolm Harrison taking PR005.
PR005 did make a return to the track driven by Malcolm in 2015, joining us in the HSCC Super Touring Car Challenge.
