Yep bulkhead around the vents below front windscreen, chassis particularly at the rear - take a big screwdriver or hammer with you when you view to give it a good bash, make sure it's solid and not being held together with underseal.
Other than that just normal stuff you would look for on a car - gearbox (whines crunches etc) check engine for excessive smoke - all Tdi smoke black on start up but should clear straight away, make sure it pulls well and doesn't show any signs of hesitancy or limiting.
