History
Built for the 1998 British Touring Car Championship and used as the team's test car. Rickard Rydell was said to have a bad feeling about the car and insisted that it was never used as his race car.

At the end of the season, the car was shipped to Australia and raced by Tim Harvey and Jan Nilsson in the Bathurst 1000. The race ended with car being heavily damaged after Harvey crashed into a wall, resulting in the car being scrapped.
