Welcome Johnny. The '03 is the one with the Center Locking Differential. If you don't know what it is you probably don't need it. I know what it is and I haven't needed it yet, but I have used it. The '03 still has ETC which I have found to be useful.
You may want to have the brakes checked. When I purchased my '04. I guess the person before me was a brake rider and they needed to be replaced at around 30k. The worn pads caused the brakes to squeal and activate the infamous Christmas tree. It started out only happening when the brakes were cold. If you hit the brakes and it hurts your ears have them put new brakes on.
Sounds like you're buying from a dealer but still check for the Jack in the engine bay, probably never used and the tools should be in the cargo pocket in the rear door.
There is a 6 Disc changer located under the seat, be sure they give you the magazine or you won't be listening to any CD's on the way home.
Also check for serviceable wipers front and rear. If the vehicle has been sitting in the sun for a long time, perhaps a couple of moths they can become brittle and literally start falling apart.
Ensure all the washer jets work, including the ones for the head lights.
Check the tires. I had to change out the original wranglers at 36k, due to wear and cupping. Good because I got to upgrade to NITTO TG's.

If I think of anyting esle I will let you know but enjoy the Disco
