Cheers guys. The spec C hatch really is a great car to drive, and I think alot of fans of earlier models have dismissed the hatch in general because of its looks and the fact it's not a saloon. They are missing a trick!

Good work pal.
looking very err..... YELLOW!!
Did all the hatches have that film on the rear arches?
Is it just a case of removing the film and polishing the panel, that spotting is weird

thinner glass, aluminium bonnet, tmic spray, no sound deadening, roller bearing vf53, uprated lower chassis cross member, spec c springs and shocks, mechanical lsd, bushings uprated, with Recaro option, and on this one, all the sti suspension options ( front flexible brace, front bottom flexi brace, front lower strengthening kit, rear arm, and rear pillow ball support.....might have missed something there.

I might be wrong, but I think they all did, UK included. It's a nightmare to remove after 11 years, and the paint is very thin, and very soft.
