Going to view my second 1.4 TDi today.

Is there anything apart from the usual that I should be looking out for? Any common problems which they suffer from?

Thanks guys.

Cambelt every 4 years / 60k miles and try and find out what oil has been used. Something that meets of exceeds VW 505.01 spec. Apart from that, they're pretty bulletproof.
