I'd be grateful if anyone can shed any light on the following :

Were the Series McRae cars in a special two-tone paint, as I've seen one that appears to be dark blue but then can look a greeny colour in a certain light/position ?
Were all Series McRae's registered with the "N555 XXX" registration plates ?
Were the Series McRae engines built by Prodrive ?

Many thanks
CHRIS.

Cool

OK then then as an ex McRae owner.

All special Dark Blue paint not two tone.

Most were N plate but not all 555

Engine was standard UK but with option of Prodrive Performance Pack.

Taken from http://www.sidc.co.uk/faq.htm

In June 1995, to celebrate their winning of both the manufacturers and drivers World Rally Championship titles, Subaru in the UK released a limited edition run of two hundred cars (numbered 1 to 201 - no number 13!) prepared by Prodrive going by the name of the Series McRae. The main improvements over the standard model are:

Special mica blue paintwork
6.5 x 16 inch eight spoke gold Speedline Safari alloy wheels
Pirelli P Zero 205/50 ZR 16 low profile tyres
Recaro sports front seats with open headrests and Series McRae motifs
All seats (front and back) and door panelling retrimmed in Le Mans/Avus material
Factory fitted electric tilt and slide sunroof
Interior numbered Series McRae plaque
Side and rear Series McRae decals
On the road price was £22,999
