Hi Guys, thanks for the quick response. Well the subaru will be for the missus, performance isnt really an issue she just likes the look of them (the classic that is) Has to be a wagon as we need one for ferrying the dogs around. I've spotted a few so far that i'm interested in.....

2.0l non turbo wagon 'X' reg 60k on the clock with paperwork to back it up

wrx 'S' reg 127k on the clock with some history

wrx 'L' reg 83k on the clock cambelt recently done and some history

Just need an ideal of any common faults to look out for, or anything that is best avoided.
cheers
