Hi Eddie,
Surprisingly, there are a few recurrent problems. If it's got a sunroof, check for rust around the edges. Engines need a cambelt change every 60,000 miles. A metallic whirring noise means there's pinking going on and you may need a replacement ECU. The crankshaft oil seal can leak, while clutches tend to go after six to seven years. Distributor caps and HT leads are both rather fragile. The CV gaiters on the driveshafts often crack and leak.
That's about it though. Pretty solid car.
