2005 forester XT buying advice please !!

[paul n]

Advice please! Viewing this forester XT tommorow to replace my 2002 wrx wagon. It is a 2005 2.5 remapped to 270 and it is running an LPG conversion. Also on wrx suspension and uprated rear anti roll bar. Anything I need to look our for with these cars? Reading up it seems the "chocolate pistons" issue was wirh later models ? Head gasket issues ? Any advice much appreciated.

Also it is running a full de cat set up! The guy currently has a "friendly" mot man but I dont have such luxuary. If I wack the cat back on for mot will it throw a light on the dash? Is it different standard for lpg?

Cheers Paul
