P.S. Love the number of advisories you have - looks like you have a load of work to do.

why i drove it of course :D

TBH most of the fail points were minor things, corroded TRE split pin missing, new seat belt, new brake pedal rubber, new headlights etc.

two biggies were siezied brake caliper, so changed both + pads, and new steering box.
