The versions are as follows:

93-96 Version 1 and 2
97-98 version 3 and 4
99-00 version 5 and 6

Your car is a version 4

I thought the 'version' was only a term referenced with jdm cars.

Never heard a UK car referenced as a version.

Same here. Only thought it applied to JDM cars as it was never really used in the uk.

Maybe it is only applied to sti models as I have seen UK cars that are described as 'versions' from v7 onwards.

As classic Sti's were only available as jdm then the above holds true.

You are correct rossi they uk cars only went by model year, not versions like the JDM STi's. None of the newage cars have versions technically but go by the model year.
