good for you mate. im also 19 and have a 99 uk turbo


think first thing you need is a new set of alloys, and then perhaps some colour coding.

pretty sure Hoskib is correct and its a MY98...a quick pic of the engine will confirm as it will be phase 2 if its a MY99 and phase 1.5 if its a MY98...easy to spot the difference.

Very nice car for someone so young, enjoy it and take your time getting used to it

Yours is an STI = more to insure than a uk turbo, it also goes off where you live etc

It also helps when your daughter works in the Glasgow contact centre and can wangle family/staff discounts
