Look for rust in the boot floor if has not already been replaced, sills and front inner wings.

check for regular servicing too.

make sure all diff lock etc work too.

felix:
Make sure all the door locks work. Don't just press the fob for the central locking. Lock and unlock the doors then try to open each door. Changing the little spring for the locks is a pain in the ...

Press every electrical button to make sure they all work. The back window wiper motors tend to fail.

The rear door handle jams.

Make sure the the ignition key (or at least a key) locks and unlocks the drivers door manualy as this is essential for disabling the imobiliser and reseting the alarm.

Lift the carpet and sqidgy mat under it were the two carpet sections meet under the rear seats - check for rust. Get under neath and have a good poke at the boot floor and sills.

Check the seats for damp stains if it has sun roofs.  And the front foot wells. Especialy if it has front mud flaps.

There must be loads more but I think these are the main ones.
