The six best BTCC cars never sold in the UK | Under the Lap Record

the Ford Focus saloon is a pretty exciting addition to the BTCC this year, as an unusual case of a car never sold in the UK racing in the series
so I thought it'd be fitting to take a look back at some of the very successful previous examples of imports in the BTCC

Sunday was cold and wet, but fun!
something a bit different from usual with a circuit rally, and some good car variety too
mostly just happy to be back at a racetrack really π

A gaggle of Saker Sportscars, whimsically powered by a Subaru 2.0 Boxer engine. They were quite popular for a while!

a photo of an article from an issue of Autosport, published May 22nd 1964. the text reads:
New Star Shines at the Palace
Jochen Rindt (Brabham-Cosworth) Wins the London Trophy Race
By Michael Kettlewell
"Who is this Jochen Rindt?" That was the question buzzing round Crystal Palace after the practically unknown Austrian had vanquished two British World Champions and several drivers prominent in Formula Junior racing in 1963 on Monday. Conscientious readers of AUTOSPORT will have seen his name appear in the results of several Continental Formula Junior races last year, when, aged 21, he had his first serious season of racing in a Cooper. But, despite the glowing reports about him from several British drivers who ventured abroad last year, who would have expected Jochen Rindt to pull the wool over the eyes of our top racing drivers so effectively in one of the most hard-fought motor races ever fought in this land?
love stumbling across articles like this covering iconic drivers from before they were big names

If someone perhaps needs to launder a bit of naughty cash, I'd be more than happy to help with that. A wise investment, I'd say!
