Had it as standard on my JDM Spec B GT Legacy. It also had an "ECO" mode to save fuel. About time the UK market caught up with standard JDM equipment.

My Legacy was the opposite, I used to get 2-3mpg better mpg using C/C
The STI is always worse by 1mpg

The WRX-S has cruise control but I've never used it.

Actually - slightly off topic.
But what do the seats in a Type UK STI look like.
That link mentions " fine leather and Alcantara front seats"
But no picture

Its a different system on the new age models as opposed to the "classic" cruise control - this one allows you to take your hands off the steering wheel allowing you read your Readers Digest while you to control your speed with the pedals to give the best fuel consumption/clutch wear/brake pad life.
It's superb ..... trust me

What are you on about?
The UK car is a Euro car - albeit probably of lowest spec, but non the less, still a Euro car.
Anyway, what about the UK STI seats - any pictures?

They're very similar to the Recaro's in ours Shaun, but not as deep with shallower bolsters.
