You can do a complete timing belt job, replace the belts, replace the water pump, pop off the oil pan and check to see if there is any play on the rods, replace any hoses that are cracked or are starting to crack etc...

Assume nothing's been done unless there's a receipt for it.

Full timing belt job (balance shaft belt, all tensioner pullies, idler pullies, water pump, etc.), the other accessory belts, air filter, clean the MAF, check turbo for shaft play, check for boost leaks, PCV valve, fuel filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires, check the coil pack, check out the brakes, check out the tires, oil change, transmission flush, transfer case gear oil, rear diff gear oil, track down and fix any leaks, look over the suspension components, if there are any CEL codes take care of whatever is causing those.

That should keep you busy for awhile.
