Bought It!!!
Well after a few posts and a weekend trailing the internet I found what I had been looking for.
2004 WR (Thanks Tommy) UK STI Blob, 2 owners 35K on the clock, full history - £6995
Pick it up in a week or so once my reg transfer has been done and the very nice dealer has removed two ultra-small door dents.
Here are some pictures - Mods if this is not allowed feel free to remove . . .
Needs a new exhausts, one of the seat runners has tarnished and the boot needs some new carpet as the old one has deformed over time other than that it is pretty minty.

Totally agree, Prodrive PPF7s and 10mm spacers as soon as I can find a real pair.

How's that for memory! I got mine from the same place having travelled from Essex, thought that carpark looked familiar!

Without sounding dumb what is the difference between a widetrack and narrow track apart from the track. I know my old one had DCCD which I never got close to using but apart from that are there a lot of differences, did not even know there was a different version until just now.

Oh dear...
The widetrack model MY05 compared to the one before MY04, drives very differently. The handling is much improved in a number of areas.

Even once coilovers, drop links and sway bars are done - is there really that much in it and can it be easily sorted.
Please dont ruin my day.

Yes, just read up, 2005 onwards has slightly wider arches at the rear and the lock to lock turn has been shortened.
I can live without DCCD and to be honest the interior is not amazing in any Impreza I have been in, kind of goes with Jap cars in general, although they have come on a long way in the last few years.
To be honest for the price I could not knock it, the miles are low and the interior looks to be in great condition.
Will look for some pics of my old interior later to compare against my new, older interior

Looked around for 8 - 9K cars but could not see anything I liked apart from a very nice fully modded 04 for 8.5K, it only cost me 7 so I am a grand up.
Stupid question but where is the best place to buy some replacement badges and a nice gay pink one for the front grille?
