These were the homologation specials for BTCC and other supertouring (iirc) cars. I remember Autocar making a fuss because the aero bits came in the boot; dealers wouldn't bother attaching them to the cars.
Wasn't there a bog standard Laguna with the bits in the boot or perhaps the spoiler attached already to homologate it?

I thought it was the Alfa 155 that had the spoiler in the boot

Laguna Airflow is the one. Had the higher rear spoiler and front splitter already fitted

I just saw this outside. My gf was all like "why are you taking pictures of that old banger?" Past 200k as well apparently.

I think everyone who wanted an aerokit in BTCC at the time did the same thing.
