To buy or not to buy? that is the question

I need your advice guys, is this a good buy or not?
Its for £9000 (about US$13000) I will inspect the car this weekend, is there anything in particular I should look out for (common faults etc) She's done over 100,000miles
Look for the following:
1. Cracks in dashboard
2. Head gasket leaks (common w/in-line 6)
3. Window motors
4. Has it had its 90k service performed?
Good Luck!
