Looks like a UK car made to resemble an STI with the seats, lights and spoiler. Looks to me like he's swapped out the original rear lights for the STI's then added the fog light for the MOT. It's an odd choice, but each to their own.

Also has the Subaru lettering which was only on UK cars (doesn't mean much i know but jus means it is a mish mash of bits as has already been suggested.)

doesn't have a diff control dial as well (admittedley don't know which STI they were introduced on though)

black dials think the STI should be white.

It doesn;t have colour coded handles which screams out UK car. But as said above thats all i thought.... UK car with STI seats and rear lights.

Surely a case of false advertising.

Looks like a UK car to me with bits added on. Yet another example of how not to sell on Ebay.

My v2 STi has black dials as standard, also no diff control dial. Although the car above is obviously a UK car, there has never been a classic UK STi model. S U B A R U lettering and lack of a rear wiper give it away as a UK.
