As I recall, Brian Chatfield had more than one Capri- he did the occasional BTCC round around 1984/5 with them, so they were presumably still in BTCC spec (although I seem to recall hearing of him having a couple of run-ins with the scrutineers at BTCC meetings...), I definitely remember the Rover though- it was an ex-ETCC TWR/Bastos car- he ran it in mod saloons and Thundersaloons around 1987/8, still in the basic red/white Bastos livery, but without the signwriting- I must have photos of it somewhere....

Thinking about it, there can't be many varieties of touring car he hasn't had at some point!
