2005 Aero Auto 142k miles worth it?

I am in the market for a car and really want awd. I was looking at outback and forester xt models, and the 92x came on my radar. I found this one in Charleston SC http://charleston.craigslist.org/ctd/5307920194.html Dealer says carfax shows 4 owners last one trading in for a new Nissan. Carfax shows regular maintenance but no idea if timing belt / water pump was serviced. The car looks really clean. What all should I look for with the car?

Checked it out. It was a piece. I took it out on a test drive and it had a bad vibration when turning at low speeds. Also the rear made some noise during normal driving. Something was definitely up with the diff. Also the car had a bunch of scratches that didint show up in the pics. I ended up buying a 2008 Outback Limited 2.5i. Not as fun, but a lot nicer car.
