I've got one. 08 HSE.

Air suspension issues are one to look out for. Front arb and wishbones are prone to going.

I had one, '54 2.7TDV6 HSE. Great car would have another - watch out of the gearbox/oil cooler/torque convertor issue.

If the rear door seals go, water can get in under the foldaway seats and sit in various recesses which house electrical connections so check under the carpets for signs of leaks.

Tow bar is removable but if it's not removed often it'll seize on.

Check running boards/side steps are fitted correctly; they're mostly after market and some don't fit correctly so end up having drill holes underneath the chassis rails - basically, make sure they're fitted well and not by a ham fisted numpty!
