I had the car MOT'd yesterday.
It failed on:
exscessice play in a front wheel bearing
corrosion the size of a 20p on an outer sill
corrosion the size of a tennis ball on the rear floor section near the outer sill
brake fluid contaminated rear back plates
so looks like I just need 2 plates welded on, a pair of wheel cylinders and a wheel bearing.
quite happy with that...
