Default About to buy an Impreza, need help verifying ProDrive bodykit

OK as above, about to buy a 2001 'Y' bugeye. The ad states it has the factory option ProDrive bodykit on, and the ProDrive quad headlight conversion. Can someone post some pics of cars with these options on so I can confirm? It's just I've seen a couple of different style quad lights etc and am a bit wary

On a side note anyone got any opinions on what a 2001 WRX with 46k on the clock would be worth?

Cheers

Steve

The Prodrive kit is the high spoiler, the wraparound foglight covers (which in turn means a slightly different bumper), and the side under spoilers (note the slight "twist" - the default items are straight). I'm told that the dials are a different colour, but I can only comment that my dials are green and red.

The headlights are similar to the rally car, with a black body (with no plastic cover). I'm sure someone has a picture. I think the Prodrive lights are the ones on the UK300. But I'm wary of that bit because the Prodrive lights are for the WRX only, and need a change to the wiring harness to fit on an STI. Note: there are at least two different knock-off versions.

Edit: bottom photo of nippy nige's green UK300 shows the Prodrive lights.

That one you show is a bog-standard WRX (not an STI), with an STI spoiler but without a Prodrive body kit, and with Morette headlights, not Prodrive ones. Only STI's have the Prodrive kit anyway. As for price though, I'm not sure - must be down to about £7500 these days?

Cheers guys! It's hard to tell whether the seller knows or not, but to be honest I'm not bothered. I'm having it to the scooby clinic for a looking over before I hand over any hard-earned moolah which is a credit to the seller for agreeing.

Fingers crossed I'll be in a scoob by saturday.
