Default Can someone help

Hi this might sound like a daft question to some of you but my mate is buying a impreza and the one he has been looking at is an s reg and in the advert it says uk spec but on the log books it says wrx did subaru make a uk spec wrx classic.
Thanks for any help

If it is a UK spec it won't have a rear wiper, light weight alloy bonnet or a bodged on rear fog light as standard (but these can be changed so don't take it as read).

Default JUST A THOUGHT

they may possibly just be referring to the fact the speedo and odometer
have been changed from km to miles.

just my insurance company asked is it "uk spec" which means
"right hand dri=ve and speedo and odometer read miles not km" they would not insure me unless it was "uk spec" yet require no proof?

suppose if i was to claim though they would check then and if not "uk spec" would just deny the claim.

Just a thought

I have a '94 impreza with an alloy bonnet and rear wiper, does that mean its an import. I cant see an imported date on the v5 though?

Cheers.
