Default things to look for when buying

hi all,
i decided to buy a jk unlimited crd (selling GTO if anyone interested). what should i look for? it has less than 50000km.2009. looks clean and kept but what would i know. getting a RWC obviously. should i get the inspectors to check it out or let the RWC cover it (i found ou the hard way a VIC RWC so much more detailed than NSW)? what are common issues?my biggest concerns are suspension/drivetrain issues.

Yep, not worth the paper they're written on But that is a bugger, hate it when people go back on their word.

You still looking? There's been a few going through here and there are some dealers on here too, not sure if they do S/H though.
