Rust: the most common places are the hatch and the panel just below the windscreen. Check all the usual places though, some MA61's have been badly affected by rust.
As for the engine, check for tell-tale signs of a blown headgasket. Also listen for bottom-end noises, timing chain rattles and of course do a compression check. A high-mileage or poorly-maintained 5M-E will be pretty easy to spot - they don't like being neglected!
