Of course, this is true of anyone, independant or official dealer!
I'd be more concerned about the backup I would get should something go wrong. We've had a few stories on here of people having issues after buying, so it's not like it doesn't happen.
My main concern would be about the time since the last service - belts can go "dry" if left in the same position and could mould round a tight run. This may lead to it jumping teeth at high revs ... instant engine death!
Unless it's something that you really, really want and can get it at a price where adding in the cost of a full service (~£600) still makes it worth having, I'd walk away.
