But he also has owned/driven a Luigi 3.0CSL. Certainly not from Aus.
I think he himself is not based in Aus.... he certainly lived (maybe still does) in Hong Kong for many years and classes himself as an ex-pat, and does still appear here on occasion to race.
Moving back to the 320 entered for LMC we never really had any Gp5 cars down here as there was no racing for that category, so I doubt whether it (the 320) ever came from here.
Sorry if that is a bit of a long winded way to in saying I doubt it to your maybe from Aus comment!
