Getting an x type

I have always had XJ40s and more recently an XJ350 4.2 sport but I have just bought a late 2005 x type 2.5 sport and am collecting it on Thursday
Looks to be OK with just over 60,000 miles on clock. Any thoughts / comments, anything to look out for/

Cheers

Check the sills for rust; they can rot terminally.
I'm not sure if the Sport is a 4WD or not; if it is then check for whining from the transfer box.
