if you were going to buy a car with this engine what would you look for to tell that it is in good condition and what would put you off?

Pull a spark plug out and check its condition. If there is a load of oil fouling or mechanical damage dont bother!
Take off oil filler cap and see if it looks like custard. If it does...dont bother!
Take a look at exhaust smoke, if there is alot of black or blue smoke, dont bother!
