I would have thought there would be a plaque somewhere in the car stating the number of car

I know but I can't find it,so it's either hidden or someone pulled it off at some time.

they should be a badge on the boot saying it or one just infront of the gearstick on the console

leonpoole 21 July 2006 11:43 AM

I,m pretty sure the v5 type r limiteds where not numbered........but the ra limiteds are.

rooferman 21 July 2006 12:24 PM

Oh and by the way its a limited ...not v-limited if a version 5 car.

Sorry your'e right I've added too many V's ,so why weren't they numbered then if it was only a 1000 car run?

dose any one know if my car is limited or not it is 1999 sti type r in black
i didnt research the car at all when ibrought it other than a quick flick though autotrader to see if it was a bargin! i brought it 19months ago with no previous jap owners and one uk owner 45k and full service history for 7000 pounds (it had a running fault and the dealer didnt know what it was turned out to be air mass meter fixed for 59 pound) and an engine 2 months later:(

Tiss 23 July 2006 10:36 PM

The ltd's were only sonic blue i think

DARKDESTROYER9 23 July 2006 10:41 PM

DARKDESTROYER9 23 July 2006 10:49 PM

From what I understand the limiteds are sonic blue and have the roof vent.
