Here's a few things to look for:
Leaking steering rack seals (the tirerod boots will be full of fluid).
Sticking antenna mast.
Gages inactive (board may have bad solder joints or bad ground)
Rust under the battery tray.
AC compressor (based on age).
Missing front air dam lip (it pops off easily and people loose them parking)
Check if the heater core was replaced. Some E30s had plasic heater core sides (BMW upgraded it to all aluminum later). There was a recall where BMW put in a valve in the heater core inlet hose to prevent scaling in case the heater core blew). It's easy to replace the heater core BTW.
Clock display will not be working
Radio is toast.
If it is a two door, the seatbacks may not come back to the upright position.
