Early UK car is 208bhp
Late Uk car is 215bhp
92- late 94 wrx is 236bhp
late 94-late 96 wrx is 256bhp
After that most saloon models were 276bhp +
1st STI (late 93) were 250ps and were modified form a wrx
1st production STI (late 95) were 275ps.
Then you have WRX RAs and STI RAs to pick from.
But when buying beware people who claim big power and there are many cars out there that have had bits and bobs replaced and then claim they are a different car (e.g. STI light clusters will fit WRXs so some people may claim them to be STIs etc)

Clock up another 40k miles experience and save yourself about £2k insurance each year.
Not classing everyone in the same bracket, but i know what i was like at 21 and to be put in a Type R, with the DCCD etc, is a recipe for disaster. I had my first impreza turbo @ 23, after building up each car performance-wise.

Hi..
I am 38 just bought a 2003 STi and Adrian flux wouldn't insure me - I went to A-Plan and got a cracking deal only costing me a couple of hundered more then my little 106 diesel...
Good Luck with your search...
