Do they have CarFax in Europe (or where ever you are from)?

With CarFax you can check the history of the car with the vin.

look for broken door handles, targa leak, tear in door panels, shocks on trunk lid and targa holder blown. That's all the del sol specific things I can think of. That and the usual stuff, smoke from tailpipe (especially at high rpms), body panels that don't line up or look like they've been painted, check engine light, etc.
