Cracks in the b pillars, I think later cars don't suffer as much though. Door pins could creak, about 50p to get replacements though.
Look at the steering wheel and gear nob too to see if the wear and tear looks about right for the mileage.

check history for not only cambelt but that the water pump and idler rollers have been done.
if not done they will need doing. prob be about a couple of hundred notes for that if it hasn't.
