My rule of thumb when I get a new to me used car is to change all of the vital fluids and filters as well as visual inspection of everything. So I'd say change engine oil and filter, transmission fluid and filter, also brake fluid, since most folks never do that one. I would also check coolant and PS fluids, those may not need changing yet but it's a six/seven year old car so it wouldn't hurt it. Then do the air and cabin filters. Then inspect all the belts, TB is probably due for a change because of its age. Suspension components etc.
