You may find that there are a few numbered higher than 500 as I don't think they used 013,113,130,131,132,133,134,135,136,137,138,139,213,313,413 ie any number with 13 in it so based on this I make the highest number possably as high as 515.

Edited too add:- Just found in the regester a number containing 13 so perhaps the above don't apply to the WR1 like it did to the P1 !!! so maybe yours is the last one after all. :D

13's

Well we will have to see. Hopefully i have the last one! not heard that about the 13's, but if true it will be unlucky for me.

the car actually only cost me 25 grand, because i'm a squaddie serving in germany i'm intitled to tax free cars. Also which is good for me tax free petrol and no speed limits on the motorways.[/quote]

hei, don't complain !

Fuel may be expensive in the UK, but for car taxes etc the UK is very good.

If I'd register my Merc in Belgium, I'd first have to pay 21% of VAT, 3500,-GBP 'registration tax', then caugh up 550 GBP of road tax per year.

Same VAT and registration tax for the WRX's or STi's. Road tax is around 300 GBP per year.
That's why WRX's are so cheap in Belgium. The registration tax just puts off many people buying one in the first place.
Whenever I go to the Subaru dealer near my parents place, there are more RHD WRX's and STi's awaiting delivery than LHD ones ! :cuckoo:

Still a nice round number!! :wink:

Lets face it... we ALL hoped for a nice number. Anyone that said they didn't in my opinion is lying!!
