Ok, usual search engine enquiries for the insurance of said car. Enter the reg number and it comes up with 4 door wrx sl.

With limited knowledge, I believe the SL models had leather heated seats and a couple of other things. This certainly doesn't have that. I assume that the SL spec pushes up the price?

So, 1. Is it actually an SL spec or has it been listed wrong on the system and 2. Would they take this into consideration,

Cheers,

Yes - SL has Electric Sunroof / Leather / Heated Front Seats / Aircon. So if you haven't got those it's not an SL.

Not convinced it would make much difference to insurance but that's just a guess!

Ive got an SL (an 03 not an 04 though) and my insurance company were determined to tell me it was an STI, ended up having to send them a copy of the v5 as proof thats it is an SL. If anything the insurance should be cheaper than the sti for sure.
