Work Needed
The car drives well and is usable. Features that would benefit from improvement:
- Surface corrosion on front & rear subframes (MOT tester confirmed they are not structurally weakened)
- Minor rust spots in three places and easily repairable dent on rear far side panel
- Rear brake pipes noted on MOT as having rust/grease/dirt on both sides
- New alternator belt squeaks briefly on startup — just needs minor tension adjustment
- Instrument cluster chrome rings are loose
- A couple of snapped bolts in non-critical areas (e.g. in battery compartment)

Paperwork & Legal
- MOT valid until May 2026
- Taxed and on the road
- V5 in my name
- Ready to drive away
