Default high mileage leggy

Am looking for a legacy estate and have found a 2.5 4 cam with all the toys on an R plate but has 114k miles on it. Full Subaru history though.

Is this too high? we will run it for a few years at least.

I know scoobys are reliable but am cautious about this many miles.

Any thoughts?

If its got a full history... ie serviced according to subaru guidelines, it should be fine..
Its just you will have to keep the servicing up to date also.

If cheap it is OK.

I've driven a near 1/4 million mile Legacy Turbo and it is still going strong on original turbo and engine

cheers guys. seller is looking for £3900. so good money for a lot of car. will be keeping it serviced as this is a good way of prolonging life.

car will be the family mobile and mine for work on occasion to keep the miles off the wrx wagon.

Blimey - the 196,000 miles I did in mine has just paled into insignificance
