Well now that I myself am becoming slowly educated on the Mk1's I can say the biggest thing to check is for rust. Check the strut towers, underside of the hood, front floor boards, in the corners of the hatch inside and out, and around the exhaust cut-out. If possible remove the right rear wheel and inspect the fuel filler down tube for rust as well.

Good luck!
