gordon_kerr Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 All of these are so vague, i think i might know what bugeye is as i may have one, then again it could be a new age wrx, can any decent soul out there explain or define what each of these really are and how the name derived. Thanks in anticipation Kind Regards Gordon
Gee Wr1 Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Hi Gordon, Classics are all the cars up to 2000 Bug Eye is the 01-02 cars with the roundish headlights, Hence the bugeye name. Wagon is the estate(sorry wagon owners easiest way to describe) Sedans are same as saloons New age refers to all cars 01 onwards Wr1 = special edition 04 car to cellebrate Petter Solbergs Wrc chapionship win. Came with 320 as standard DCCD(1st uk car to have this) ice blue colour etc Hope this helps

derek_robertson Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Hey there Mr Squirrel Don't forget the "real" Petter Solberg V-Ltd 2003 WRC commemorative special edition in WR blue I believe only 555 of these were made. See ya Sunday, Del
gordon_kerr Posted March 25, 2005 Author Posted March 25, 2005 Well done Grant, perfectly explained, many thanks
st3ph3n Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Jambo, if that's your car in the picture then it looks to be a classic. Unless my eyes are sorely wonky.
gordon_kerr Posted March 25, 2005 Author Posted March 25, 2005 that aint my car in the picture bud , i have a wrx my o2
the squiggle Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Bollox, i have been looking out for that car every day when i visit Dumfries. Jambo what is the last 3 letters of your regi plate, to make spotting you a tad easier. I will be the nutter flashing you from a Merc Sprinter DHL van Del, outside the UK there is numerous special editions and i only listed the main models. 2003 WRC V Limited was the name for the WR1 outside of the UK. There was also the Impreza GX Turbo, a Japan only special that had jacked up suspension, 2 tone paint and the spare wheel on the bootlid. Grant
derek_robertson Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 I must beg to differ Grant, Petter Solberg V-Ltd is nothing like a WR1,spec is totally diferent See ya, Del
