Im looking at a new to me scooby, and having checked the paperwork/ VIN codes etc and HPI check- everything adds up.

However, for interest, I have the VIN No and Applied model number from the engine bay plate and have been trying to decipher them to make sure it is what it is- but I cant decipher them having looked at various links in other threads, such as http://www.iwoc.co.uk/ukcode.html, http://www.cars101.com/subaru/vin.html#examples, and katherin Larkin something.

Could anyone help? Id be interested to see what model you come up with.

The AM No.: GGAEK8D
Option code: MV

VIN: JF1GGAKD35G0*****

Thanks

Just by going of the JF1GGA it should be a 2004 WRX Wagon, European spec?
