Question

Hi every one, being a newbie this is my first topic. I'm after some advise. Just had my uk300 serviced On Saturday. I asked the dealer to fit my number plaque, as this was forgotten when I first picked the car up. I understand the official home is on the center sun visor above the rear view mirror. My plaque was fixed in the tray in front of the gear lever. I was concerned that if I end up parting with the car in a few years time, enthusiast may question the cars authenticity. Should I more this to its proper home?.

Not sure. Some limited edition Impreza's(the Catalunya for example) have a plaque near the gear lever. I would'nt worry too much, as long as you have the paperwork that proves you are the first owner etc etc you'll be fine.

Nigel, I would'nt worry to much, when I got my car the internal plaque was'nt fitted. The dealer gave me it to fit or not fit as I pleased as he felt it was a bit cheap. Of the other three UK300s I ve been in they were on the back of the tray that you mention. The only one I have seen fitted above the centre visor, is in the mag reports which I did'nt think was a good spot anyway. Just enjoy your car.

If you fit it in the wrong place, be careful Subaru UK do not tell you it invalidates your warranty...

Mine also wasn't fitted, they then put it on the central sun visor.
Could've been a bit better quality though!

Nigel,
Dealer asked me where I wanted to put mine! and I said the same place yours is, as I thought it was a bit tacky on the visor, so I wouldnt worry.
