Here you go, second paragraph strongly implies the car in the Patrick museum wasn’t a show replica but actually Longman’s 1978 Championship winning car. The car currently in the BMW museum then must be the 1979 car, or have they even been switched? Either way both are clearly race cars which I strongly suspected and this article proves?
Bugger can’t add the photo. Will try again later.

Second paragraph reveals all… from the Autosport article by Tony Dron, 1979.
Leonard Crook has also confirmed (on my Facebook page) that the Patrick Museum car was indeed the 1978 British Saloon Car Championship winning car, someone got a real bargain yesterday!!

I heard it was bought by a well respected race team and was spotted in West Sussex today.

Prices seem to be softening across the board, if the Bonhams Goodwood Revival results are anything to go by

I am very tempted. Can you experts see anything obviously wrong with this set?

Possibly used a few pots of this , they don’t look that big! Looks a nice car to be fair but spotted the hole on the front of the O/S sill which would usually mean further rot. Been flipped before through a dealer so must have been cheap to start with
