just got my new insurance docs back today and they state that the my99 impreza i have bought is actually a rb5 how can i check this

 

Look out the window at the car?

Is it grey?

If it is then its likey an RB5. (or a V5/6 STI)

If it isn't the insurance company has it wrong or you've bought a ringer.

 

Check the vin plate, cant remember off hand for the colour code for cool gray (horrid yank spelling but we say grey and its better ) the car will also have UK clocks, nice RB5 interior, solid rear bulkhead, I "think" it will have map lights too, no UK MY99 turbo had those.

RB5s don't have a solid rear bulkhead. Remember the thread from a few months back? All they have over the UK cars is a bolt on tie bar across the 'hole' in the rear bulk head. Rear seats don't fold of course.

 

not able to see what the commets are

 

Post a pic of the car mate and we willl soon tell ya

 

86F Steel blue metallic

That's the paint code.

If the seats have blue alcantara on them, it's an RB5. Oh and it'll have a plaque infront of the front ashtray.

 

mines green

 

just a UK 2000 turbo then not an RB5,i'd contact DVLA and get them to put it right

 

also got fold down seats looks like the insurance have cocked up

 

definately get onto your insurance company.Sorry i misread the post i thought it was your V5 document that said RB5.Out of interest what does it say on the logbook? because they are usually wrong aswell

 

Think I'd be checking the details on your log book with your insurance Co.........

 

right all sorted log book states uk 2000t awd but churchill state that i need a tracker

 

you need one with churchillbut there are plenty of companies out there that will insure your car without one fitted

 

all ive done is changed the car over as still have 4 months left on the policy so i will be looking at other companys soon

 

dont need one with aviva

 

you wont need one with Keith Micheal either....
