What should i look for? Buying 52 plate wrx
I am going to buy a 52-plate wrx next weekend. Its only done 14k and has been serviced by subaru 3 times. The guy says it still has the original tyres. One family owned, a 58 year old for more than 2 years then his son. Its still got 2 months warranty left. Is there anything i should look out for?
Cheers

cobwebs by the sound of it 
Have a good long drive, make sure its cols when you first start it, all the usual really.
For peace of mind, ask the guy if it can be looked over by a scooby specialist if one is local. If theres nothing he is hiding there is no reason he should mind
Good luck, lovely car too

Is the WRX on a 52 plate a MY03 shape or a late bugeye?

and I didn't buy it to look at it Several trips to the West Country, Scotland, The Lakes and countless days out in the Yorkshire Dales, N.Yorks Moors and Derbyshire Peaks soon puts the mileage up. Back in Devon in a couple of weeks, hopefully setting up the newly fitted AST coilover suspension set-up on some good roads 
and getting the geo done by Powerstation whilst in the area 
BTW, mine may be a 52 plate, but it is a blobeye
