a manual 1995 with 60K miles and have a few questions that I'm hoping this board can help me with. Am taking this car to a mechanic if I'm seriously considering it. I would like to understand this car better:

1) Is the timing belt/chain due for a change if it isn't done yet? How much does this approxmately cost?
2) Is it normal that the airbag light takes ~2 minutes to go away?
3) Both seats were kinda creaky (driver's creaked between gear shifts). Is there a quick fix/cheap fix to this?
4) Is there anything else I should look out for?
All the VIN stickers are on the panels and except for a few dings, the car seems clean.
