Not much wrong on the mot fail, no mention of corrosion. Can't see the reg to know what year it is, but the white bumpers suggest it's likely to have to keep its cat.
Nice one in Dorset

Re: Nice one in Dorset
Doesnt look like a huge to do list to get it through another MOT. Strange to see it sold on for Spares or Repairs for such little work.

Re: Nice one in Dorset
Maybe needs rather more than mot bits, cambelt could be due, might have a leaky heater matrix, dead odometer etc. All adds up.

Re: Nice one in Dorset
Oh definitely, anyone would be right to be skeptical when such a short list is a reason to move away from the car.
