I always thought my car was a uk spec scooby wrx sti!!! Well I'm just in the process of selling , and looking at my doc's its say's

Make , Subaru

Model/type blank

Variant GDB

Version ODO

I need to make a call to my insurance too , it was registered in 2004!

Is it a jap import

Ben

 

Post up the Applied model number and a pic

UK sti's have Type UK badges on the boot

If it has a rear wiper it's jap LOL

Shaun

 

does it have rear wiper? rear fog light? picture would help

 

nothing on my reg doc , regarding model number !! no badge in boot and no wiper, could it have been imported from Europe??

 

Will get some pictures up !

 

 

 

The thing is I have a load of people interested in buying , and now have to let them know if it's a uk car!! I was sold it as a uk car from a dealer two years ago , but hey I should have done more research , glad I haven't had a bump , wonder what Mr insurance would say??

Ben

 

hpi'd it and it comes bk as just a subaru 2.0? no wrx or sti doesnt even say impreza so i'd definetly say its an import, and no rear wiper or fog i'd say it aint from japan so good chance it is europe

 

can't tell from the pics........is it silver or ice blue ?

Shaun

 

Cheers mate , so is that good or bad? Did they import them from Cyprus ?

Ben

 

It's silver

 

Its not a JDM, so its either a UK car or an import from europe.
The service book should have the dealer stamp in if its a UK sourced car, either way it wont increase your insurance unless you didnt tell them it was an STI

Tony

 

Ah.... forgot about the servce book. Mine's a Euro import and has the supplying dealer / PDI from a garage in the Netherlands LOL

Shaun

 

I have it insured as a uk wrx sti , will parking it up for now and ring them Monday. I haven't got the original service book only one supplied by a dealer in 2006 , it must be a euro import! thanks for all you help cheers. Money wise how much less will it be worth ? I was hoping to fetch 6.5/7k as I haven't got full history , car has done 34k with mot's to prove.

I had a euro import turbo and had it insured as a uk car, I told them the details and it seemed it could either be a jap import or uk spec. As it's essentially the same as uk spec I don't think you'd have a problem with how it's insured.
