Look over the front upper control arms at ball joint, bushing, and sway bar connection. Rust on the swaybar is a big pain to fix. Pull he dip stick and let the oil drip off. SLOW DRIP is a sign of seriously neglected oil change intervals. If it's below 0C it's very unlikely the car will start without glow plugs.
Look under the car along the entire floor pan for obvious rust signs. Look in the coolant tank for rust and oil signs...
