Not that it makes any difference to me because I love my car and have no intention to ever sell it (fingers crossed)....but i'm not sure what model exactly my STI is so if someone with basic knowledge could inform me!

It's a 2005 Subaru Impreza STi UK version (or so the badge on the back says) however it doesn't have DCCD but has a 6 speed gear box.

I thought all 6 speed gear boxed were DCCD ?

Pictures attached.

Euro import

Yup, EU Import as stated, the DCCD was a 1k option but they added 1k to the UK price and gave it as standard over here.
Some previous owner just added the type UK badge in the past.

Ah ok! Thanks!
So for insurance reasons I guess I'd have to say its an import?

Out of curiosity what does your logbook say it is?

I have an 03 WRX thats on logbook as a Subaru Unknown

Matt_STi

The V5 form or whatever its called just says Subaru Impreza so its not very useful!

Mine is the same EU import non DCCD but with 6 speed

Matt_STi

Ah lovely! Good to know others are out there lol! Personally DCCD isn't important to me though!

Petermaccoll

Haha definitely, I'm the same for what I use the car for dccd is not essential, I had dccd on my previous sti which I owned for 3 years and never used this function. I have my map switch and antilag switch where the dccd control is I find this much more useful

I too have one of these euro imports. A number of people bought them from Motorpoint, who brought them in from Malta. It was a couple of grand cheaper than buying in UK.

Nice plate on it bud, consider selling it ?

Thanks, it was on the car when I brought it - the guy said it's quite rare ? No idea how much they are worth ?

Not being funny with you but it is obviously rare - there's only two in the world (1 in Black & White and 1 in Yellow & Black).

DVLA will sell SC06 WRC for - wait for it - £250.
A quick trawl through the numbers available show xxxx WRC plates for £250 - £400, exceptions being an 07 ('T', so SC07 would be of interest to 'Scot') and a couple of others.

It wouldn't be worth selling sorry, unless the buyer was adamant they wanted it.

It might be worth SB having a look at the DVLA site.
My personalised reg. (Model and initials) cost all of £250, and I'm well happy.

Matt_STi

Haha yes I suppose that's very rare..... 10k then!!
