No piston slap issues evident with these (yet!). One thing that does spring to mind - and I've never owned an MY01 car so speaking from slightly hazy recollection here - is a fault on some rear struts that can result in them leaking/squeaking, so listen/feel for odd noises and handling when you test drive, and have a look round them before handing over your cheque.
As mentioned, I've not had first hand experience of this issue so best to check with some '01 owners before taking what I've said as gospel!
