Fuller joined the British Touring Car Championship grid for the Rockingham round of the 2012 season, replacing Robb Holland in the Team HARD. Honda Civic.[2] He finished 14th in his first race, bettering this with a 12th place finish in the wet conditions of race two. He finished race one and two at Silverstone two weeks later 11th. Aaron Williamson took over the car for the final event of the season at Brands Hatch, meaning Fuller finished the season 24th in the drivers' championship.[3]
