Buying a used Alfa Romeo

[RULE303]

My sister is looking at buying a used alfa romeo 156, its a 2006 model with 122k. We are going to have a look at it on monday and wondering if anyone knows what to look for? The timing belt has been changed recently which i have hears is one of the leading problems in the 156's. She understands that servicing costs are high than normal and she doesn't mind that, she just doesn't want to be stuck with a bill half the price of the car if a hose bursts or something. any advice appreciated
