Viewing a 370Z, checklist anyone?

I'm going to view a 2010 370z tommorow and was wondering if there's anything I should look out for or be aware of? It's a UK car with about 30k

It's a UK car with about 30k miles on the clock.
When is the next major service due?

There is a service at 30k

I got mine with 23k miles and it's been great no problems so far make sure steering lock unit has been taken care of (does it affect 2010 models)?

Yup, there is a 30K mile service. I'd check steering lock recall, I bought a 2010 in January and they took it to a Nissan dealership before I bought it to have the recall done. Check for service records to make sure the previous owners took care of it.

Back hatch springs seem a common if minor problem..

There are only 2 major items to check - Steering lock as mentioned and the dreaded MC/CSC failure.

If the steering wheel is on the left hand side, I'd be skeptical
