been doing some research trying to find out more about my car and going by the model code of my car it is a wrx type r v ltd (limited edition ra model).

I'm starting to think I've got a pretty rare car!.....does any one how many of there's were made??

cheers harri.

RA Dunk

You do have a rare car indeed, infact there were none made, there are no Type R RA's, what you probably have is a V limited.

This has been covered on here a few times now and the information is a bit misleading TBH.

yeah.

RA Dunk

Right I knew I had seen this covered before, you have a rare car right enough. it's a "Type RA chassis with a Type R shell" apparently.

Have a read of the thread below, it's quite intresting and the info comes from Subaru themselfs.

Looks like a tidy car, classics in that condition seem to be few and far between nowadays
