Something strange there?

The V2 sti 555 were only made in 53c blue,a few other extras were roof vent,aerial on the passenger side rear quater,rear window wiper,i/c water spray,they were made to celebrate Colin McRae winning the WRC in 1995 I belive,hope this helps a bit

Unfortantely I'm waiting on the DVLA standard plates as its a fresh import.

Its been rebuilt from the dodgy condition it came over 2.5 yrs ago, but towards the end of the month I'm hoping to get N70 WRC

HI,
New on scoobynet but I got one too!!

Had it a while but only discovered what it was this morning! Bought it as a normal wrx sti.

Out of interest..does anyone have a plate between the ashtray and gearstick stating it's a McRae series???? Sorry if it's a thick Q but selling ours on ebay at mo and some numbnut going on about it not being a 'real' one as it should have this plate inside.

Will try to add a piccie of mine...needs a wash first! Managed to upload into my profile but not figured this bit out!

How many have you found now since January????

Thanks it has whiteline springs that were fitted by the previous owner, i am not sure if they lower it much as i still feel it sits a little high. The wheels are 18 x 7.5 and there is no rubbing at all.


A couple of pictures with a rather famous 555.
