Sounds ok, but 7 owners in only 9 years is a put off for me, i prefer a one or two owner car as it helps when selling on.

You would think they would have made sure the spelling was correct on an advert. What else could be incorrect????

AFAIK the UK "Prodrive Style" had slightly twisted and not flat sideskirts

Shaun

PS

I know the later UK STi's had black inserts in the middle of the seats and the jap jobbies had completely blue seats where your bottom goes but not sure about the UK Prodrive style..........are the speedo and rev dials royal blue??

I'd heed what 360ste says mate if I were you..

You're inviting someone to bid over £6k for a car with modified power, where the seller has zero feedback/history... I'd personally edit the wording and correct the spelling/grammar, otherwise you're going to have zero interest.

Surely that's not bad advice?

Are the clocks blue or black? Look very black in the pic.
As said above Prodrive Style should have twisted side skirts and blue clocks.

However, I'm sure the owner has the Prodrive certificate which will clear up all the confusion
