"This LH drive full works 240T GpA was one of two cars prepared in Belgium by Guy Trigaux Motors (GTM Engineering) for the Belgium Volvo Dealer Team and competed in the 1984 European Touring Car Championship. The car (and spare parts) were purchased directly from Volvo Motorsport (Sweden) by Mark Petch a New Zealand engineer/businessman/race car driver. Petch had the car air freighted from Frankfurt to NZ after the 1984 European season ended, eventually arriving in New Zealand in January 1985 ...... Petch decided to ship the car to Australia being a late entry into the 1985 Australian Touring Car Championship under new GpA regulations.......
