SUMMARY

Superb opportunity to gain access to one of the most exciting series in the UK Historic Racing calendar.

DESCRIPTION

  • Driven by Peter Kox in the 1998 BTCC as part of the Works Honda Programme, run by Prodrive
  • Part of a large, private competition car collection for a number of years
  • Now in need of recommissioning and estimated accordingly. Spares package included
  • Great opportunity to join the grid of the ever-popular HSCC Super Touring Car Challenge
  • NB The rear wing is included

The 1998 Auto Trader RAC British Touring Car Championship was particularly memorable during the 'Golden Era' of touring car racing in Britain. That season the format consisted of a sprint race and a feature race, with the latter involving a compulsory pit stop. Honda approached Prodrive, with their vast experience of building and running cars, and asked them to build and run two works cars for 1998 season.

In 1996, Peter Kox joined BMW Motorsport, making a handful of British Touring Car Championship appearances but focusing his efforts on the development program for the McLaren F1 GTR, winning a race in the BPR Global GT Series. The following year he drove the car in the FIA GT Championship, winning once more. He also took a class win in the Spa 24 Hours with a Diesel-powered BMW, before getting behind the wheel of this Prodrive-prepared works Honda Sport team car in the British Touring Car Championship during the 1998 season alongside James Thompson.

This particular Honda Accord has formed part of a large, private collection of competition cars these past few years and is therefore in need of recommissioning. There is a spares package available and after some love and attention, this highly developed 'Supertourer' would be an ideal candidate for the every-popular Super Touring Car Challenge, run by the HSCC. If driving a proper Touring Car is on your 'bucket list', then this is a superb opportunity to acquire a car that will give you access to one of the most exciting series in the historic racing car calendar.
