very nice indeed!

just out of interest, what GSI was it? I used to have a few of the Mk3 Astra GSI's with the red top C20XE - great, great engine in a fantastic looking car!

Nice

Is there a plaque on the inside above the gear lever ? It's late but I think it might be black with silver engraving LOL

There is no such thing as a jap Mcrae!!

The series Mcrae was a Uk edition.

Nice looking car thought!

Is it a wrx vlimited ?

i cant see a roof flap on it so it has to be a wrx v limited.

sti v limited and sti 555 cars had a roof flap.

the wrx v-limited is very easily confused with an sti as it has the same seats but it is just a fancy wrx.

the badge on the back will confirm. if it xxx/1000 then its a wrx v-limited
if its xxx/555 then its a sti v limited or sti 555

Like you mention the sti cars had a roof flap and the sti 555s were not numbered.
