At the conclusion of the 2004 British Touring Car Championship, a one-off non-championship race called "BTCC Masters" took place. The drivers were all driving identical grey SEAT Cupras with the exception of Jason Plato as his car was blue.

Sponsored by Nuts magazine... Wow, that is a product of its time.

For non-UK members, Nuts and Zoo were tame lads mags of the early 00's and they would not be acceptable in the 2020's.

Alpine's "Deadpool & Wolverine" livery for the 2024 Belgian GP was actually better than their current one I feel.

Probably the only (Post-2001) variation of the Toyota livery was when the team promoted "The Dark Knight" in 2008.

A blue Formula Classic car? Makes a change from red but still doesn't improve the look of the design very much.

Apparently Mitsubishi was supposed to run as a team for the 2007 season with an updated Lancer WRC as part of the newly formed Manufacturer Team category, the team was meant to run by Abu Dhabi with the help from Ralliart and have Toni Gardemeister and Khalid Al Qassimi as their drivers however this would never come to fruition (likely higer ups at Mitsu were against the idea of a return), Abu Dhabi and Al Qassimi joined Ford midway of the season while Gardemeister ran with a privately entrened Lancer WRC for a few rounds of the championship.

What remained of this ordeal was a Lancer WRC with Abu Dhabi sponsors.
