Take them for a drive, have a listen for any knocks & creaks from the suspension. Lower ball joints are pretty common to go around 50-60K. If they've been in the UK a while then seized calipers seems to be common from salted roads. MAF sensors usually need a clean, it will be a bit hesitant on the throttle response if dirty. If the spark plugs haven't been changed at the recommended service intervals it will cause a missfire from damaged coils. They can be expensive to replace. Can't think of much else that goes wrong. Factory CD players are crap. I pulled mine out & replaced it with a nice Alpine. Suspension & brakes are 99% identical to IS200 if there's any other common issues you'll find them on this forum if not AltezzaClub or Tezzworld forums will be able to help.

Thankyou very much that is very helpful :). should be getting it october 1st! :D
