FAB 655 - Ex TMS Mk2 Rally Car

During a recent Barn Find episode of Johnny Smith (https://youtu.be/_oxUojc310Y?si=aaiMoaTVqko9Vphr) above Mini was shown. It was apparently the first rally car of the previous owner of the BMW, who had an small car accessory chain (TMS)

Anyone recognise the car or the owner? Any rallying history known.
Don't know if this would be of interest to anybody, just thought I share it for the records.

They attracted my attention too :geek:

BTW: FAB 655 is currently assigned to a 2005 1300cc Toyota

That car was bought by Roland Proudlock to rally in Scotland which he says on my FB page eventually fell to bits and the number plate removed. Tony Blore engine, wonder if he still has that!
