Buying a used Hyundai

I'm thinking of buying a Hyundai i30 auto, 2007. The car has only done 33,000 miles, had one lady owner, and has been regularly serviced at Hyundai. Is there anything in particular I should watch out for?

Pretty good buy, not least because the auto is higher geared than the manual so more restful on the motorway. But better be a chain cam 1.6, rather than the old belt-cam 2.0 litre.
