I am back in the game
Thanks to mikeb for the lift and another pair of eyes I purchased a version 2 sti 555 today
A limited number of them made to celebrate the 1995 wrc championship win
The only impreza to come out the factory with rally livery
It's rust free and totally standard apart from an alloy rad and an exhaust
Suspension mods /brakes/ de-cat and a map and take it sprinting
Original safari wheels

Looks great Trev but you haven't said how it runs.
Remember Logan I think posting a pic of one of these up a while ago.
Personally though I'm not a livery man and that would be straight off

Little bit of inspiration

It drives really really nice Gareth, all tight and quiet engine
I am not a livery fan either and when going to look at it I thought I would take them off
But it's grown on me and the fact it's an original car it seems criminal to take them off

Lovely Trev
I think it would be sacrilege to bin the stickers as it's all factory but would quite understand why you would take them off, after all, it is your car!
Very, very nice and it reminds me of V-Rally on PlayStation!!!
Good luck with the car and your spec-creep
