Hi Mark, First and foremost check out the cris documentation to make sure the person you are buying from is actually the owner.

leakage around front window's,check wallboard around the windows & the window ledge on the inside for damp.Mine had water penetration which looked as if the window seals were leaking turned out to be due to faulty mastic along the top of the window hangers

As Ray said, Stress cracks.
Mines a 2003 Ranger 500/5. I've had both the front and rear panels replaced, luckly under warranty.
