Yes, it's got ABS, there is an ABS warning light when you start the car up, which promply goes out within 3-5 secs.

I thought the type RA does not have ABS but the type R does ? Maybe because it's a V-Ltd with a slightly different spec to a normal type R.

NB No. 93 of 1000 built!

Question

Note that's a WRX Limited, not an STI Limited.

You sure thats not a WRX - RA? Not heard of a WRX Type R before .

Unusual Car

I think type RA's have 4 doors, and type R's have 2 doors. Very rare as 99.99% of scoobys I've seen on the road are 4 door.

Yes, WRX is applicable here, but I'm not sure what STI have done with the engine. The Scooby front badge is blue, not pink, but with 300PS (~295BHP) as standard, they may have done something to the engine. I got some info when the car was new to me, I'll have to rummage around.

Thumbs up

In 1998 there was a WRX V-Ltd Type-R, and only 1000 made. If it is, then it should have a roof flap. It does have a low spolier which they came with, and came with driving lights. The exhaust is typical of a WRX, and it has a badge on the back. They are rare cars, I was possibly going to buy one but went with the STI. Just my opinion, but you are probably better dropping the price a bit as it is slightly high compared with other models... Nice car, though no need to touch it up as it will just put people off.

Yes, it's got the ralley style air hatch in the roof instead of a sun roof. A feature of the V-LTD I beleive.

I'm runnng a MY00 WRX Type RA Ver6 LTD (454) and have made some enquiries about the spec.
Apparently RAs Don't have ABS as standard Or Air con,Cds etc as a means of saving weight,but these are all available as options.
As a Ltd edition mine came with ABS and Air con but no roof vent (damn!)and no CD (still hasn't - i just listen to the motor!).
It seems the permutations - particularly on the Ltd editions are endless.
