Off the top of my head -
Make sure the fans work on all settings.
If it has the extreme spoiler, make sure the boot stays open.
Check the coolant levels.
Check the tyres match and they should be 205 45 17 NOT 40s as they are the cheaper option. (I know as I've just had 4 fitted ! )
If it's a Mk2 check the handles. They break easily and are a pian to rectify.
If it's a Mk2 check the rear bumper for gaps where it meets the body. Again - can be fixed if the gaps are big, but it's a bargaining tool.
Budget ?450-?500 for belts and if the seller can't prove they've been done, assume they haven't. We all know how costly they are and if we've had them done we retain proof.
When you drive it, you should feel/hear the engine pick up at 3K revs. If it doesn't there will be an issue with the VIS motor - ?100 for a new one or a DIY refurb. Another bargaining tool.
Good luck !
