It looks like its an import mate (non-intergrated fog light), might just want to check exactly what service history claims to be present (cambelt should have been changed).
Engine looks a bit grubby so might be worth insisting that you have a service thrown in before you buy.

It was advertised as an "STI" a few days back but I gather the garage must have been told.

Wheels look like they should be swapped for my gold STI ones

Hope this is of some help

Bugeye WX wagon in white........rare beast in the UK !!

Someone has modded it with some STi bits... but it's still a WRX, MY02 as it has the radio ariel in the rear screen

If you want a white bugeye wagon you could wait a long time until something crops up and if it's sound then the price is pretty reasonable

White is nice. It'll have more donkeys as standard than a UK version too, they are rated as 250PS/245ftlbs.

It's not the BHP that's the problem.......the switch to the newage shape did bring with it a lot of lard
