Can't imagine they would bring back the A class hatchbacks, A class saloon or C class maybe?

Perhaps the CLA. Very sleek / low drag.

Can't imagine they would bring back the A class hatchbacks, A class saloon or C class maybe?

A-class saloon or CLA perhaps. CLA being the slightly sleeker A-class sized coupe/saloon may be the way to go IMO if they all feel the Hyundai has an aero advantage.

RML-prepped Mercs with Rowbo and potentially Jake Hill. That would be a very interesting addition to the grid.

Ok, not Jake Hill

Jake Hill To Depart Laser Tools Racing With MB Motorsport And The BTCC • BTCC

Team commits its future to the BTCC as Hill moves on

Big loss for the championship and especially for WSR/BMW.
Sounds like he's going GT racing. Sutton will follow at some point.

The Autosport article about JP Motorsport was linking Hill's sponsors to the new team as much as Jake himself. That press release says the sponsors are committed to BTCC but doesn't mention WSR or BMW. Maybe still something there. Plato did say he would be upsetting people in the paddock.
