Hmmm, not sure what car you have here, do you have a WR1 or do you have a jap import wrx? also what model year is the car you have? and pics/better description would also help

Well if its a WR1 it should have WR1 stickers on the front wings, a plaque below the stereo etc... any details on your car?

not sure either it is a jap import it is a 54 plate, It has all subaru bucket seat with subaru written on the seats, (But not STI)

what i can not work out is why is has the 400 badge on the back. the seller did say that they had to make 400 for the WRC that year !!!!!

but sure he was pulling my leg ( but got 2k off price)

i will post some picture of it

Subaru on the seat sounds like the UK300 doesn't it?

I can't think of any other type that they are on
