R plate is wrong for version 5 sti. Early ones are S plate (late 98) otherwise they're T plate.

R plate should be version 4, unless there's been some dvla **** up

As said earlier, get someone who know,s their Scoob,s to look at it for you. Buy a bad one and it may cost thousand,s to put right. Steve.
