Default What model is my car?

I am on the verge of buying a 1999 UK Impreza estate (or Wagon).
Its on a V reg - can someone enlighten me as to what model it is? MY04 etc...

Also - Does a regular saloon exhaust fit a Wagon? or even just the backbox?

Cheers
Richard

#4 It means Model Year, not manufacture year; but bear in mind that the Model Year runs from approximately September to August (a MY95 car will have been manufactured between September 1994 and August 1995 for example).

Oh I see - its as simple as that is it.... now I feel stupid!
So a 1999 Wagon is simply known as a "classic" is it?
I've seen "classic" & "bug eyed" banded about so I'm guessing thats all there is to it? I have a MY99 classic UK Wagon!

I'll get my tattoo amended right away

Thanks to all!

Richard
