Default What year is my car

Hi all

Still getting my head around the Scooby world after only 2 weeks of ownership.

There have been a coup,e of minor bits and bobs I have ordered or wanted to get however have become a little confused.

I have a Hawk eye WRX on a 55 plate, however all trader and parts placed have the Hawkeye as a 2006 model onwards.

Date of registration for my car was 25/10/2005

Is this right am I safe where it states for a blob eye model in 2005??

Simples answer I expect

Cheers

Paul

As above look for 06/07 parts, When it comes to Suspension/Wheel parts make sure its WRX items you are looking at as STI bits wont fit due to having a different PCD on the wheels, You are one of the lucky ones with the cheaper tax as most are paying £450 a year

Lol I noticed that on the tax when I bought it

Moving along a bit I have trawled this site and many links trying to understand my applied model code. But can't find it...

Subaru build their "new" cars late in the previous year hence you have a 2006 model but built late 2005..............

as above, manufacture is always ahead of date's, my old astra was a 2001 spec, but a picked it up in 2000. Short version is the factory options i chose ment it had to be built rather than taken from stock, so was fitted into the run when 2001 cars were beign made ready for march release
