Anyone know anything about this?

(Should I post this here or the TC Discussion forum?)

Edit:
I found the answer, please disregard;

Didn't even know they were back. Looks like a Proton.

They have been sitting in a car lot untouched in Sydney for like 5 years.

Someone reported the TCR cars will be at the 2017 Bathurst 12H. Might be a good opportunity to let people know MG are back on the car shopping list.

Doubt many will care unless they teamed with Mazda and Fiat to do an MG Roadster.

Anyway, something about BTCC racing that seems to be a bit more exciting than TCR. Drivers? Tracks? Seriously doubt any UK(BTCC) teams would bring their cars to Bathurst.

Sounds like he will be racing GT's of some description next year.

I would say it's the Level of competition, TCR doesn't have a series yet that is at the same level.

PMR will run a couple of Astra's next year:

Autosport are saying it's a works team but none of the information implies anything more than the usual. Hot looking car though.
