GBRM should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

The car wouldn't have been new but I believe sourced from Sweden, not Eggenberger.
Well in 1986 Patrick Watts raced a Fiat Uno Turbo in the Class B of the Production Saloons with my Dad and the view was to move up to Touring Cars for 1987 in the Uno (it was even officially announced in Motoring News) but it didn't happen.

I'll have a look through my 1985 MNs and see if there is anything about the Volvo in there.
