Obviously you want to make sure parts are easily avialable for any car you buy......

I keep most service items in stock for estimas and impreza and find it easier/cheaper to get parts for imports than "uk first registered" cars !

I have in stock most items I need (service kits/brake pads/radiators/couplings/brake hoses/water tanks etc etc for my convience and anything I do not i can get next day delivered ! I usually have one estima in for breaking/spares for those silly little bits I may need and great to have to hand !
