**MY96 301.8bhp IMPREZA WRX V-LIMITED. NEW PHOTOS!!!!!
#1 (permalink) This is a Subaru Impreza wrx v-limited its a 1996 model on a n plate and its a limited edition model number 988/1000, built to celebrate colin mcrae`s only world rally championship in 1995, it has limited edition world rally badges on the boot and logo`s embroided on the front bucket seats
I imported it into the country in september 2005 at a cost of £7000 (receipt to prove)and i am the first and only uk owner, the car was undersealed and had speedometer changed from km to miles/hour and the speed was derestricted, cambelt was also changed
i have had the car for nearly 3 years and its still only covered 61,000miles from new.
I have added quite a few modifications to it, just as a hobby really including as follows:-
scoobyecu mapped at 1 bar £350
full sports exhaust including,
harward and scott open flange decat downpipe(heat wrapped) 3 inch £160
decat centre section, £99
vortex afterburner backbox with 4.5inch titanium tip tailpipe (all scoobyworld) £279
Wrc style mudflaps in black £89
sti suspension £200
sti panal filter £40
intercooler waterspray £35
boost controller £25
knocklink £119
3 boost gauges £115
twin pillar pod £89
18 inch gold superlegga alloys with new tyres all round £1200
recent group a exedy clutch £350
clear indicators and reapeaters £69
pre 96 grille £55
sti 3 piece front splitter £129
sti fog light covers £60
sti 6 rear spoiler £329
cat 1 alarm and immobiliser (toad) £450
el scanner £39
electric.......
windows,folding mirrors, ariel.
air con
alpine music centre £700
world rally bucket seats (mega comfy)
it was rolling roaded at motoscope, Northallerton at the end of march this year and recorded 301.8bhp. printout to prove, this car is blisteringly quick and has very little turbo lag, which gives it quicker accereration than a Impreza p1
This is also a light weight model with alloy bonnet, front wings and wishbones etc..
also has a close deck gearbox with a taller 5th gear for motorway cruising 0-60 in 4.7 seconds
not really in a big rush to sell but fancy a change really, selling the car for £4995
it has 11 months mot and 5 months tax
its also cheap tax at 185quid a year.
It has a Toad C5 compact catergory 1 alarm and immobiliser fitted when i bought the car at a cost of £450 and is a must when getting insurance for these cars
I`m 29 with 9 years no claims and pay £302 fully comp
the car will come with a folder full of receipts including japanese service history.
still has the japanese mot and insurance stickers on the windscreen!!
Its in very very good condition and i have really tried my very best to keep it as mint as i can, its washed and waxed every week.
only ever run on shell optimax/v-power in my ownership
I`m based at Ripon North Yorkshire,

omg not this old myth!
please understand this is a jdm v limited a run of 1000 where made number 13 not being made so really there are 999 of them,
the uk market version was a Mcrae special edition limited run of 555 again no number 13!
This car is a wrx V limited !!
it cant be both ra and v limited FYI
it is not a wrx ra ! it has electric windows and air con that dont come on ra's
yes you could have electric windows as a option on a Ra but not air con!
also the car has abs? and no IC water spray?

i wasnt saying that his wasnt its just that the title says 555 but he said in the description 988 out of 100 was just confused.as mine is an imported 555 made in 1996.
