Default Common things to look for in used Mazda5?

Hey folks. I'm going to be looking at some Mazda5's. They're mostly 2006 and 2007 model years, all with less than 120,000 miles. I've heard that front sway bars and bushings are a common issue on these cars.

What should I look out for?

Rust; everything else is relatively cheap and easy to fix.

Default Things I noticed when I got my Mazda5...

If you’ve still not got the 5, then you should look out for offset steering, corrosion/rust (especially on the exhaust) however my exhaust got damaged after anyway because of a massive pothole #thankswellingboroughcouncil!
