100,000 mile TT - what issues?

I'm looking at a 993 TT that's got around 110,000 miles on the clock. Whilst it visually looks great I'd like to know what issues a car of this milage may start to have with the internals, turbos etc so I can have an idea what I may need to spend cash on.

It's a '95 car - is there anything that lists minor differences between the years? For example, I've heard on a '97 car the ECU can be more easily upgraded?

Thanks

Nick

Correct me if I'm wrong but the 993 TT didn't come out till 1996.

The 993TT was imported into the U.S. only in 1996 and 1997. RoW started seeing the car as early as 1995. (Lucky bastards!)
