ive had one awesome was lowered on 17s with ful stainless 1.6 one
the visual difference is front fogs between the 1.4 and 1.6k
check rusty rear arches
head gasket issues
drivers seat for damage
door shuts for damage as there all dinted as the seatbelt doesnt retract quick enough meaning they get trapped
otherwise general likes brakes make sure theres no eml light on and its got a bulb in and works when you turn the ignition on

Went to look at one the other year before I got the vectra, the sills that you see on the outside are just plastic covers, underneath them on both sides (and on top near the door seal) it was more rotten then my SR was, great big bubbles of rust everywhere!

It drove perfectly well apart from feeling slugish compared to the SR (1.6 but the extra weight compared to the nova just killed it), had had some accident repair work (found it in the history), and was that awfull metallic blue, the one that looks more like purple, which was quite frankly in a shocking state (scratched, dull, signs of lacquer being burnt through etc). Even at a paltry £700 there was nothing to do but walk away.
