Personally I would say not worth it at all. But each to their own

Cars are worth what people are prepared to buy them for.
It's not the model i would choose to store as a long term investment, but it's certainly worth more than £10K when you look at the availability of these cars now, after so many have been broken, even ignoring the fact this thing is as good as brand new.
Why would a car that has been stored and maintained properly break as soon as you drive it hard? What do you mean by hard?

What can happen is seals can go out of shape if weight is left on it in one position for a long period of time, which can then lead to seal failure in use, but with modern car tolerances, this is much less of an issue than older generation cars. Where this could be a problem on a Subaru is in a very few small areas, most likely places are the driveshaft output points, which are an easy fix.
So, why would this car fail if driven hard? and what do you mean by hard?

They don't perish any quicker than when in use, the rate of deterioration is based on the chemical breakdown of the component. When not subjected to the elements or heat cycles, components last longer.
