Or infamous in that case! Speaking of Alan Jones and his links with Toyota back then. It's interesting to note that 'AJ' and Swedish driver Eje Elgh drove Toyota's then-new MA70 Turbo Supra (below) to its first and only outright Group A victory, on debut at the fourth round of the 1987 Japanese Touring Car Championship. The Ford Sierra RS500s dominated after that. So Toyota must have engaged Jones for various promotional and racing roles in the late 1980s but it obviously didn't continue for whatever reason.
