LOL its a total bullsh*t car.
Some muppet is trying to pass that off as something it isnt, and AFAIK the only cars that have that sticker on are the Spec C's from 2005 (type RA ltd).
As stated, its a UK car trying to be passed off as something else, easiest way to note its a UK car is the S U B A R U badge on the back and the high level spoiler and no red top engine (STi's of this age had medium level spoilers like the uk 99/00 models).
If they are telling lies about what it is now, what else are they covering up?!

If thats the case then its rarer than he thought. 1 of 50. More like 1 of a kind.

You would have to be pretty gullable not to read the v5 to see what the car actually is and they do state its an STi

Not too worried TBH. Think a lot of Type Rs were registered as mentioned.

Mine states "Subaru" make and model. Sure you can tell them what model it should be but if they cant get it right in the first place, how are they going to check what you have told them is correct and factual?

Neither of my imports state which model it is on the V5.

Two axle rigid body vehicle is what is states.
