Default how do I call someone from GB ?!?

hi there,

I'm looking for an Impreza STI, just wanted to call someone in Great Britain but I think it was completely the false man I called
Thought it's the 44 in front of the phone number, isn't it?
Hope you can help me, it's difficult to manage this with only 10 buttons

Or does anybody know this car: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1540887.htm
I've got 9 litres of black glossy paint and they want to jump onto the pink color

cheers
Nico

Its 0044 then you drop the 0 from the code,

eg: 01707 becomes 0044 1707

You dial your international breakout code - we cant help you with that. Then you dial the UK country code which is 44. Then dial 7071015309: this WILL work with normal phone numbers, but may not with this as its not a normal number: it should work though.

After the breakout and country code you drop the first character of the British phone number, which is a zero.

Ignore the 00 44 bit above...

It should be +44 161 111111

+ indicates your local code to dial internationally, if it happens to be 00 then fine but some countries are 011

44 is the country code for the UK, like 1 is for the USA and 33 for France etc

thank you guys, didn't know how to replace the '+' in front of the country code^^

pink is gonna be replaced by black, hoping for more pictures of the car, especially the engine. How do I find out if it's a real sti or something other? Chassis N° ? I've got a link to the "sti bloodline" - Homepage -> The Bloodline of Impreza STi Version <- this may help to compare the numbers...
Let's hope it's a good car :P

cheers
