Question

The main question is that is the car a V-Ltd version or not ?

Brand new MY00 WRX type RA its blue has sky blue alcantara seats. It doesn't have a radio but in the coin tray behind the gear stick it has SPECIAL EDITION written on it.

I know the obvious thing is to check the Vin plate or read the badge correctly on the back . Unfortunately the car is no longer at the garage as it is away being undersealed and the garage are not Subaru specialists.

Does this sound like the V-Ltd version and has anyone got any info.

Extra info it has a twin pipe exhaust and the spoiler looks simular to the UK MY00.

Come on boys and girls somebody has too know .

cheers

Chris,

What you have there is a WRX V limited...

There are three versions of the V Limited, the WRX 4 door, STi Type R 2 door (like Matt Oz has) and the STi RA 4 door nutter b'stard version (loopiest version).

As far as I can recall the WRX V Limited is just a paint job and different seats...

Hope this answers your question

Chris,
I have No.67 of a 1000. It's 280bhp with a short ratio gearbox. Not a bad motor but could do with 4-pots like the STi. How much are they selling it for?

p.s. first thing I did was to get rid of the puny tailpipes with a nice S/S backbox

Cool

Harj,

Yep forgot about the roof vent, but be careful, not all RA's are fitted with a roof vent, I understand it was a delete option on the V Limited's...

Yep its definitely not an STi WRX RA but it is an RA. It hasnt got a roof vent but the guy told me it was one of only a 1000. I have purchased this car so its too late now . I just wondered what I had brought DOH! .

I have a ss back box ready to go on .

Thanks for all the info
