Thinking about it now, the car I have pictured above was owned by Neville Crichton at this time, and the "Francevic" Sierra mentioned above was the ex Andy Rouse XR4Ti (RHD) car.
The Eggenberger car pictured above was being raced first at Wellington Jan 1987, then Pukekohe 1987 a week later, then taken to Australia and campaigned (rather unsucessfully) by Crichton and Denny Hulme for a handful of rounds in 1987. Although a fast car, it was plagued with reliability problems, then completely outclassed when the Cosworth came along that year with its better engine and less weight.
