Race history

Rallyman Jack Tordoff bought the car from AFN on 18th June 1974. It remained with the JCT600 proprietor (with that reg number) until August 1975, when it was acquired by Paul Michaels of Hexagon-of-Highgate.

A minor cosmetic restoration was carried out back at the Porsche factory for Pat Jennings in July 1980, and five years later it was bought by Brian Powley from Autofarm for £30,000, having done 15,000 miles. Now registered as 69BP, it was treated to a comprehensive five-month restoration in 1986, which cost its new owner the best part of £50,000.

The copious data file contains correspondence about the project between Powley and Josh Sadler, and three bills for labour (£7800), mechanicals (£17,000), parts and paintwork (£20,000). Bear in mind that the purchase price of an RS was £6255 in 1973 – and that is a serious escalation of values in just a decade.

It changed hands next via an auction at Silverstone in 1993, falling into the clutches of BMW specialist, BTCC champ and historic racer Frank Sytner, who disposed of it a year later to Winston Mak in Hong Kong, when it was registered BR930. In 2003 it relocated to collector Don Tryhorn in Australia, and was acquired by Mick Pacey of Export 56 in the summer of 2006.
