The less well-regarded 'box, but still decent. 56k miles is good news, so:
Check the box by getting it properly hot on a long (20 minutes+) test drive to make sure all is smooth. Banging or flaring of gears isn't good news.
Do an atf change (3309 fluid) soon after you buy. There's different schools of thought, but I'd be taking it to a trusted Indy like Horton Cars and getting a complete change for about £300 or so. You're then good for another 50k miles.
Useful primer on the box on Horton's website.
