    No extended Arches - on a 99. Think that makes it a type "S"?

    Are the Arches a UK model thing? Our car is a Jap import.

    No idea about rolled arches - are they like dropped arches but not as severe?

    You would not believe I was a Nurse would you!

    I do not think VR-4 imported until after 2000 although I may be wrong and will be corrected by someone in the Posse

    Mine is April 1999 - could be a T but is on an S plate which reads as S280 CG

    It may be obvious why I bought the plate, or is it?

    As an import I did enquire thru the agent about newer cars from Mitsi dealers but anything younger than 3 yrs rocketed in price so 99 was best value

    This yr a 2000 should be a reasonable buy

    Or so I believe, but please do not post message questioning my motives or stating that this is all about selling something.

    This is just what I understand to be the case from info passed on by someone else

    As I've read on this site, it appears those with the newer shape and an auto box will have the extended arches.

    They flow with the side skirts and the aggressive front bumper, see the couple of pictures of mine INSERT INTO post VALUES (below) much better pictures to come when it stops raining.
