NEWBIE ALERT!!!!!!
Lol hello all thought I'd introduce myself as I'm new to the scooby scene and have recently purchased my first scooby, and I absolutely love it.
Any local scooby friends around lakeside/ south Ockendon area?

Cheers lads. Not sure if it's a spec C. How would I find out? Is there anything that would be different to a normal sti?

Should may have a badge on the bootlid indicating something. It was the zunsports grills and roof flat that made me wonder. These are typical of the JDM cars, which made me think it might be a Spec C or something like that.

It might be a uk sti with the ultimate spec c roof flap mod which isn't cheap

That's quite likely as the rear roof spoiler shouldn't be there if it were a Spec C Blobeye.
Looks lovely though. Very nice indeed.

Can you post a pic of the engine bay mate, will be easy to tell you if it's a UK or JDM!
Nice car too

If it's an import then it was imported new as the 1st date of UK registeation shows as 2005 on the DVLA site.
As Zany says, it will be a UK spec STI car with top spoiler & roof flap fitted.
Does look the nuts though.

The bloke I got it from said the flap was imported from Japan and installed over here. It's definitely a uk model. I'll upload more pictures when I get a bit of time.

Not the biggest fan of the Blob's, but yours in a lovely example. The colour really fits well with it.
