A lot of young owners so make sure everything is nice and tight, gearbox, steering etc. Low mileage doesnt necessarily mean good, check for a comprehensive service history on either low or high mileage models. Headgasket can be a problem, make sure oil cap is nut full of a mayo like substance, this usually indicates HG is on way out. Im sure others will add to this
