Default Scooby Classification

This is probably a stupid question to most of you, but being relatively new to the scene I thought I might as well ask it.
There are a lot of phrases used on here to describe the cars you drive/see, for example:
Classic, New Age, Blobeye, Bugeye, Hawkeye

So what I was wondering is what model year range relates to each type of vehicle?
As my car is a 52plate STi what is it classed as (I think it is a Bugeye?? am I close?)

If it looks like you don't want one it's a blobeye

The SIDC faq used to be quite helpful on this but has fallen out of date recently.
