WSR has announced Aiden Moffat as the first driver for the new LKQ Euro Car Parts BMW programme in the 2025 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship. The 28-year-old from Edinburgh will race one of two BMW 330i M Sports that will compete with LKQ Euro Car parts title-branding in what will be his 12th full season in the UK’s leading motorsport championship.
He scored the first of his 15 podium finishes on home soil at Knockhill in 2015 and the first of his five career victories at Donington Park two years later.
One of a small number of current drivers to have won BTCC races in both front-wheel-drive and rear-wheel-drive cars, Aiden has secured podium results in all but one of the past ten seasons.
Aiden is set to begin his testing programme in the New Year alongside fellow WSR drivers Jake Hill, the reigning BTCC champion, and Daryl DeLeon.
Aiden Moffat said: “It sounds like a cliché, but this really is a ‘dream come true’ moment for me in touring car racing. The chance to join the best team on the grid doesn’t happen often so it’s fantastic that everything’s lined up for 2025 and that we can go forwards together with the support of LKQ Euro Car Parts. Having seen from the outside how WSR operate, they just seem to do things the right way in every area.
Dick Bennetts, Team Principal, said: “We’re very pleased to welcome Aiden to WSR for 2025 as part of our LKQ Euro Car Parts BMW line-up. As one of the few current BTCC drivers to have won races in front-wheel-drive and rear-wheel-drive cars, he should adapt to the BMW quickly and be able to challenge for strong results everywhere. It’s also interesting that he had his best BTCC Championship result in a rear-wheel-drive car in 2021.
