Hi there,
As the car is an import, information can be a bit limited. The vehicle as a whole looks to be great, if you've had Subaru before then you might know about the AWD system and how the boxer engine operates, it's basically a Legacy/ Forester mix with more seats.
Yes for sure make sure the cam belt has been replaced at 100,000km, and obtain service history if possible. A pre purchase inspection is recommended also.

They are a good engine, not really known for their fuel economy, but the AWD system makes the car very stable in the road.
There is not really very much the dealer would tell you, but a pre purchase inspection will give you access to an expert inspection and advice on the overall condition.
