Going to look at one today for the girlfriend, any sort of problems these have? Anything specific to look out for?
Its a 2000 X plate, so one of the first C's, done 89k

Slow 
Sorry, other than engine problems same as in a B (If there are any?) then it's just a case of checking the usual C things - ABS Recall done (if applicable), Gear Linkage updated etc etc

A lot of them are very tappety.
