We know the Grice car went to Mike O'Brien, so we're maybe looking at either two of the cars built for the aborted TWR WTCC programme, or possibly the cars HDT used in their 1986 ETCC programme, updated to VL-spec. Does anyone know if these stayed in Europe, or whether they went back to Australia?
The Serge Power cars might have come from TWR, but how early in the season did they get their cars, and at what point did TWR decide to not bother any further with the WTCC (remembering they rocked up at round 4 at the Nurburgring).

Did TWR keep any cars for testing and development for the '88 spec car? (It's been mentioned before that Roadways supplied a car for this as well to TWR)
