Preventative Maintenance After Purchase on 88 740 Turbo wagon 700 1988

I recently purchased a 1988 740 Turbo Wagon with 109,000 miles on her. She has been fairly well maintained over the years but I have no records. I've been looking at the list in the FAQ for Preventative Maintenance After Purchase and I have a question about the coolant hoses and vacuum hoses. Would you just go through and replace them all for "good measure" that is for reliability? And the same with the coolant reservoir? Or would you just inspect and replace as needed? Money isn't growing on trees for me but it also isn't a huge concern--within limits.

For what it is worth I have changed oil, filter, air filter, brake fluid and the the timing belt was done less than a thousand miles ago by the PO--I do have the record for that.

Thanks for any advice or help.
