Was at Autosport show today and saw the new/revised Mk5 AMD Milltek will be running in the BTCC this year.
Excuse the rubbish photo's
This year the car is running with support from Your Racing Car -
www.yourracingcar.com (hence all the pic's on the top of the car).
The car has undergone a complete strip down and rebuild during the winter and is now fitted a VW 2.0 Turbo engine rather than the previous NA 2.0 engine. (Producing around 300bhp and 350 ft lb torque from a low boost turbo, 0.8 bar IIRC, but high compression engine)
From speaking with Shaun he says the car should now be on the money with the power (this was felt to be a key problem last session) and some other changes to the cage/bulkhead and suspension setup should see the car running in the top 10.
Having seen the car a few times last session it certainly looks an improved machine this year so fingers cross the Mk5 will be showing the Ford's and Chevrolet's a thing or two
