In January 2002, two versions went on sale in the UK - the WRX STI, and the special edition WRX STI Prodrive Style. The latter may not have a catchy name, but it is undoubtedly the pick of the two cars, with Prodrive-designed spoilers, grille and front bumpers as well as dark blue instruments with red needles inside.

To distinguish the cars from the large amount of 'grey' imports in the UK, Subaru designated these cars 'Type-UK'. This shows Subaru's disapproval of the grey import market at the time, though in reality just added to the choice subaru lovers as car enthusiasts had. All Type-UK cars include a category one alarm and immobiliser, as well as a satellite tracking system.

The STI (Subaru Tecnica International) could be recognised by the use of smoked glass projector beam headlamps, bigger bonnet air intakes and a single rear exhaust pipe - drainpipe size naturally. The headlights where the nicest interpretation of the bug eye new age design in my opinion. The wheels as standard where 17" x 7.5 alloys in Gold, and the interior featured blue suede-effect seats and special trim. Four colours are available: WR Blue shown here, Blue Black Mica, Premium Silver Metallic and Pure White.
