Early pass/fail MOT question.

[Jamesyboyjim]

Look at it another way then - do you want to trade it in for a new(er) car, or stick with it? It won't cost £1100 to sort out all those points highlighted above. So trade it in without fixing them and get something else, costing you £xxxx and resulting in you having a car that may have its' own issues, or spend £xxx resolving the issues with your current car and continue with happy motoring!

Its a dilemma
The concern is also its a 12 year old car with its original clutch, gearbox and cambelt.
