Doesn’t leak any fluids or even lose pressure from the tyres.

It’s a year 2000 model but I put a cheap private plate on to hide its age.
It’s a manual.

MOT expires 1 April 2011
Front door central locking solenoids are a bit sticky (I suspect a squirt of WD40 would sort them out, if the door doesn’t lock on the first press of the remote it always locks on a second press).
Just failed the new MOT (one month before old one expires). It has only failed on droplinks and one leaking front shock absorber. So it could be got through for about £80 of parts, in fact if I’d wiped the oil off the shock it would probably only have failed on the droplinks. However, the wishbones are a bit tired and I’d only change the shocks in pairs so to fix the car properly requires 2 x droplinks, 2 x wishbones, 2 x front shocks.
I’m located in Bristol and I’d like £250 for the car. I also need to hang on to it for a week or two until I can buy something else.
