Exclamation I need help with my b6 a4

Okay so I'm starting to get frustrated...
I recently purchased a beautiful B6 A4 1.8T quattro 6 speed with high mileage, 265,473km to be exact. The dealer I got it from is quite sketchy because they believe there is nothing wrong with it but I know for a fact there are numerous thing wrong with it. To list a few:
- fluids are low
- white smoke out of one exhaust?
- misfire (possibly the coil packs)
- brakes
- flex pipe, etc.

What should I do to get a full inspection to see what's wrong and what isn't? Sorry I'm not too mechanically inclined, I'm only 17 and this is my first Audi
*Any help will be appreciated* Thanks!!!

(I'm also new to the forum)

Basically what I'm asking is, what do I look for and how to I treat/maintain a "new" used car?

brakes are a maintaince issue. U can wrench that at home if you have basic tools and a jack and jack stands! As for fluids which fluids are low? Oil change in order? Washer fluid? Coolant powersteering? Gotta be a bit more specific. the white smoke might be a valve cover gasket. As for the coilpacks what makes u suspect they are in fault? Do you get a flashing cell?
