Things like radiator/theromstat will be getting brittle and should be replaced, turbo hoses, clutch/DMF?, all the viton seals (esp in transfer case and oil cooler), head gasket? It's a td5 so heaps of stuff to do as preventative maintenance. If it's got a full service history, that's only half the story, changing fluids is obviously a good thing but replacing hoses and other more expensive items could be a bargaining point on your end. I wish I haggled more for mine on these points. I'd be looking at low 20's if those big items haven't been done. They try and sell the low k's but if it's original there's heaps of money to be spent to remain reliable.
