Not heard anything of them.

My 2004 STi was badged as Type UK, but it didn't mean anything so to speak. The 320bhp version of mine was the WR1.

The "Prodrive" sticker on the door is added aftermarket for sure.

IMHO it's just a slightly tweaked STi Though I could be wrong of course

I'd be inclined to agree with Worzel on this. Prodrive stickers don't mean a thing.

Its probably a PPP'd STI so 305bhp on paper (more like 290bhp when they typically went on the rollers) and the chaps got a PPP certificate which has confused him. The WR1's were the only blobs with 320ps (315bhp) as far as i'm aware. The confusing bit is that he's got a number from somewhere.... no 6 of 125. Wonder what thats come from?

There were certainly special editions in the blobeye era (WRX300's for example) but i can't think of any that were STI based other than the WR1 or the S203 (latter of which is nothing to do with Prodrive).

Still, always open to being proved wrong

only new-age cars Prodrive did were the WR1 and the RB320...........

if it "was" a Prodrive special then it would have a numbered plaque

Agree, my old MY94 was a Prodrive Edition and was No. 4 for 1994 for 1994 IIRC
