Ask if he'll guarantee it for your drive home, thats usually very telling as to weather someone trusts a car.
Check the heater works and all the switches in the doors :p

the noisey injectors will piss you off as its so noticeable
also look where the injectors enter the head pools of what look like oil is diesel passing out past the injector seats
this can make removing injectors a bitch also the seat sealing surface area may be damaged so even new copper seals wont seal
Schweet ,thanks mate, i really do hope she's a goodun
Its a HDi...it'll be shit whatever you ask.
Just buy it and have a few hundred spare for all the stuff that the previous owners couldn't be arsed to fix....
