Aiden Moffat has been announced to be joining West Surrey Racing as the first driver for the new LKQ Euro Car Parts BMW programme in the 2025 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship.
The Scotsman will race behind the wheel of one of two BMW 330i M Sports as the 28-year-old begins his 12th full season in the championship. Moffat began his career as the youngest driver in BTCC history at only 16 years old, scoring his first career podium in 2015.
Moffat has secured BTCC race wins in both front-wheel-drive and rear-wheel-drive cars, as he makes his latest switch from Toyota to BMW machinery.
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 and we’ve all seen how much success they’ve had as a result. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so excited or motivated for a new BTCC season and honestly I wish we could get on track right now!”
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. We’ve seen what he’s capable of on the racetrack – including several impressive wins – over the years. Our job now is to give him a car that will allow him to get the best out of himself as often as possible.”
