Case 420CT Series 3 thoughts?

I'm considering purchasing a Case 420CT Series 3 with 1000-ish hours, private sale. From the pictures the machine looks to have been not abused. Besides the obvious things like play in joints and engine issues, it'd be great to hear any thoughts on this machine and what to look out for for when inspecting. I'm buying to use on my property: road/driveway maintenance and construction, heavy landscaping (offloading and moving big boulders) and creek/pond construction, also some snow removal since we have that stuff here in the winter. Possibly run an blower on it, perhaps some auger hole digging eventually. (This is not a high flow machine, but Case "low" flow seems to be quite a bit higher than the low flow on equivalent Bobcats). I already have a mini-excavator so probably won't be digging much with this machine. Thanks!
