Default GB270 Wagon #001

Few pictures of my new to me GB270 that i bought today from Matt @ www.offyourmarks.com....thanks Matt!
It was originally owned from new by Steve Perryman who is also on SN (or was?).

Its in great (A1) condition as you'd expect having been owned by a pro detailer (think its got a few layers of Zymol Royale on it?), barely a stone chip on the car and only 12500 on the clock plus its #001 and has the upgraded leather/alcantara interior as well as a few other little extras.
Its quick enough for me currently but do these have 2 CATS? Would a decat and a sports CAT keep it legal emissions wise, i'd obviously get it mapped for more power and i guess to stop the CEL light?

Anyway a few pics.

Lovely ! I thought that was stripped and lined with dynamat and lots of ICE ?

Best of the GB270's by a mile.

Yes, that is Simon's old car. Very nice.
Here's the diary that Simon had created: https://www.scoobynet.com/members-ga...-and-pics.html
IMHO it looks cleaner without the front splitter.
I guess the dynamat is all there and just the ICE has been removed.

I believe both the GB270 saloons and wagons were PPP'd WRX bases?

Lovely looking car though

This is now for sale.
Nothing at all wrong with the car, its 100% reliable and in great condition, the fault is with the owner!
