I would have a tensioner pulley on hand and consider changing it next time you have the belt off.
I would also get a turkey baster and replace the PS fluid and flush the brake fluid if it hasn't been done in the past few years.
The gearbox oil or auto transmission fluid should be changed if its the original.
If you have even tire wear and you jack up the front end and don't find any play in the wheels, I wouldn't go changing anything there as part of prevevtative maintenance.
The original struts seem to last a long time (mine are 10 years old with 150,000+ miles). They may have degraded some from new, but if the handling is still acceptable and you don't see any cupping type tire wear you can wait until you see a problem.
I would look closely at the axle boots and change them if you see any cracking or grease leaking out.
If your car is a Viggen you might consider a new MAF, otherwise just drive and enjoy !
