Look on autotrader site there are a few at moment, but some are not always genuine STi's. Its easy for someone not so honest to make an STi lookalike (look at me talking, after building an Sti 8 ) by adding bigger spoliers and a few badges. i am not sure how to tell exactly a genuine earlier one, but should be a plaque or something i think in the engine bay or front suspension strut. Its easy to just add the cosmetic stuff as I say like the STI bigger spoilers, the different rear lights and badging, so need to check the engine and stuff to make sure... anyone now a sure way to check a genuine STi

steve all you need do is ask for the chassis number, the sidc faq will enable you to work out if its a real one or not...are you are going for a v5\6?

Will you be able to do that? Pilots of the "triple five" are trained to withstand torture -yes - but lack of ownership for that length of time???????

Nobody could withstand such a thing!!!! There are also "secret missions" being planned that you should be part of......but you need a Wagon !!!!!

subarus wagons are non existant but that does not stop the quest

his cruising machines include toyato corrolla with 4 inch exhaust suzuki samurari and a honda 125 bike along with jeepneys


most expensive night was 2 hubo hubo clubs to 4 am for 5 people which came to a wopping 23 quid D:

bargain was a side street dodgy club for 3.50 !!

life is so good over hear although the misses has discoverd some strange messages on my fone so im lying low in a cyber cafe drinking yet more san migel at 5 pm


i will continue looking for a wagon when i sober up on 23p san migel
