A friend has just bought a WRX V-ltd, no 119 of 1000, it is on a 96-N reg and the car is nice, just thought someone could tell me about the car cos i have looked on the SIDC web-site and can't find any info on the car.
Any info on the car's spec gratefully accepted.

You can try doing a serach on Google - it turns up a few sites, although (not surprisingly) most of them are in Japanese.

Immy - I think this was the one we looked at when we were looking to get our scoob (as it was, a "to good to be true" offer came up on a UK model, so we got that in the end! 
). There is a massive lack on information on these - we could hardly find any using all available resources...in the end we asked on IWOC (www.iwoc.co.uk and eventually came to the conclusion it was simply a special edition WRX (with the logo on the seats etc.) I know one of the guys on IWOC brought one recently with alot of info on it, so if you ask on there he might have been able to find out some more. Unfortuantly I've recently purged my IWOC mail folder so don't have any of the mails left! Sorry! 
Hope that's at least of some help.

yep, but that didnt really help except confirm its a 95/96 WRX non STi 4 door manual.
You sure it's not had the V limited dash plate and trim swapped over after production, say from a write off? That would be my favourite guess on this car.

No, the WRX V-Limited is a real car. 
As far as we could tell when we looked at one, it was a WRX with a nice interior and a plaque. mechanically, it was identical to a standard WRX so 260bhp I think. A search on Google turned up this page http://www.coara.or.jp/~arakuram/imp.html, which you'll need to run through a language translator (if your Japanese is as good as mine! ) gives a basic spec at the bottom.

They don't have a dash plate do they ?????, the V-Ltd badge is on the boot and it has another logo (in metal) on the boot also, the car's genuine, i just wanted to see if anyone could tell me the spec of the car, i think like someone said earlier it is just a special edition WRX ie, the color, the decals and the interior.

Definatly real - although hard to find info on. Built to commemorate a rally thingy in 1995 (manufactors title? something like that!!) - there's a logo embrodered into the front seats.
ImmY - check out the table at the bottom of the page Chris recommended, same spec. as the Jap. WRX of that year.
There was also definalty a plaque...I think it was somewhere on the dash - Chris reckons around a sun visor (hey, it was 6 months ago we saw it!!
). We looked a number 700 and something, must have got that from somewhere!!
Try joining IWOC and asking for the guy who recently brought one if you want more info - he had loads of paperwork with his apparently.
