We are promised the full story in due course ;)

I spoke to the chap charged with sorting it who says it's had to take a back seat as they are so busy on other projects but after an extended period in the UK, at that time, it was in the US.

I have just seen a conversation on Facebook (in the Retrocrosser group), indicating that this car has now been bought by Terry Maynard.

According to his (Terry) posts it was bought as a stripped chassis, he will be building it back up and plans to use it at Race Retro this year.

Ah ha, I didn't know whether it was "out there" yet.

Yes indeed, the Hoonigan team have located another RS200 to work on leaving this car to be brought back to it's period racing setup by it's new owner (TM).

Therefore it is back in the UK (or it should be by now).
