Looks ok, no mention of MOT or Tax?

Looks like a reasonable established trader so you have come back if required.

I'd agree, and you can always negotiate for MoT, Tax etc.

Only one minor thing - it's been labelled an 'Estate', which doesn't imply Subaru knowledge or 'speak'. It might just be that they've decided to market it that way but perhaps be careful that they knew what to look out for when they acquired it.

Well I'm reasonably sure 'estate' is the correct term for it and how it was referred to by Subaru back in the day, wagon was a nickname adopted by owners who thought owning an 'estate' was not cool.

Although I stand to be corrected.
