Check the B pillars as they tend to crack, check for a bad repair, also check along the top of the windscreen, they also rot there.

Front chassis legs, boot floor, B pillars, base of the spolier.
Check it idles OK and isn't smokey either on start-up or under load (when its warm give it full throttle in second on the test drive up to about 4k)
Also check the seat bolsters and adjust the price accordingly.
