I love the way they continue to refer to having the Euro-spec engine instead of the Japanese version as though it's a good thing

The STi is designated and badged ‘Type-UK’ to distinguish it from unofficial imports which do not have the additional features standard on the British versions.
What? Orange wedges in the indicators

I still reckon the only reason the 'Type UK' badge is fitted is so that dealers can tell whether the 'rip-off-Britain' tax has been paid, or whether the car is an identical parallel import from Europe. Why do you think there's no Type France, Type Germany, Type Holland...
