Default 2005 widetrack optional extras?

I am on the lookout for a UK blobeye STi, but I need a totally standard UK model (or one with few mods that I can easily return to standard).

I have looked at a few but I am confused as to what is standard on different models inparticular the 'widetrack'.

I am looking at a 2005 UK widetrack in a few days. It doesn't have the dccd control, it does have smoked/black headlamps, small roof spoiler above the rear window and a rear diffuser.

Are these items standard on the widetrack model?

I have searched but someone provided a list of differences for the US market, so it only confused me more.

Thanks in advance

None of those things are standard fit items. It doesn't sound like a UK widetrack either because they all have DCCD as standard.

Sounds like a non widetrack, 2004 model on a 2005 plate. Could also be a wrx with some STI bits bolted on

Got any pics or link to it?

They did a non dccd model on the widetrack as I've seen them before

Seems alittle too cheap at £6500 maybe a duff ad
Also front rad is leaking aswell as they do
spoiler is added on as they come in the hawkeyes oem

Thanks

maybe a duff ad, but its worth a trip to view if its genuine. I think £6500 is about right for the mileage.

Are the roof spoilers usually stuck on or bolted?

It does say at the bottom on the autotrader checks that its not been imported/exported.

I would obviously do a hpi check but want to make sure of these modifications first

If done properly should be bolted but some have known to be bonded

You won't get a decent bug sti for less than £6k never mind a blob widetrack don't take cash with you on the day and never leave a deposit

Hope it's goes all good for you pal but please do think twice and take someone with you

I didn't say anything about type uk's being non dccd widetrack
I only stated subaru "they" did a non dccd model in the widetrack version which I have seen before previously

I first thought that if the dccd box had failed they might have replaced it with a cheaper non dccd box, but I'm not sure it would still work with 114.3 pcd hubs?
if you go for a look check the left side of the clocks as that's where the dccd display is
