You would need to ask for the applied model code. The ebay advert shows the limited number plate. He has still ruined what was one of the best imprezas buillt.

i can't see the ebay pics, only pistonheads ones.

p.s. if it was an st202 i expect it was mod'd in japan. a full spec c lightweight outer skin (all pannels) must be well into mid to high 4 figures if bought new.
