Check your oil. Cambelt must be done every 32000 or so, lobe wear is an issue. Check it boosts properly and the wastegate isn't leaking. Alternatively, for more in depth detail, have a look at the buyer's guides on here.

Rust is becoming a problem with earlier cars, check all the extremities and boot floor etc.
