Do a visual check of the sills, rear are more prone to anything than the front, check tyres, if it starts and runs a car for £100 is a bargin. if you get it less - all the better. As soon as you do get it however give it a cam belt change.

Check for smoke coming out the exhaust too! Burning oil etc.
