wiper blades
change of oil & oil filter (always change the oil filter with the oil)
check brake, clutch and ps fluid levels, top up & bleed if required
check brake pad wear on all wheels
check tyre wear on all wheels (including spare!)
fuel filter if it hasn't been changed in ages, or car has uncertain history
flush & fill radiator (if due, or if uncertain history)
check air filter. Replace/clean if necessary
ummm... almost certainly more
