Got a spare Sunday and some holiday cash? Plunging into a boxset of the 2000 British Touring Car Championship delivers loud tyres, relentless wheel-to-wheel action, and plenty of character. The season tour showcases familiar saloon cars and a roll-call of drivers who make every corner feel eventful.

  • Boxset focus: The discs chronicle the 2000 BTCC season, offering multi-hour coverage that transports viewers straight into the paddock and onto famous UK circuits.
  • Notable machinery: Expect recurring appearances from the Ford Mondeo alongside Honda and Vauxhall entries — the cars that defined much of the era's championship battles.
  • Driver drama: The footage spotlights names such as Alain Menu, James Thompson, Jason Plato, Rickard Rydell, Anthony Reid, and even celebrity entrants, bringing on-track rivalries and personalities into sharp relief.
  • Racing style: Unlike American oval series, this is tight, multi-turn road racing — close passing, tactical positioning and plenty of sideways moments on classic British tarmac.
