The V is full of leaves..... Oh yes.
All the issues are fixable but at what cost. Add up everything as best you can to fix the bits it failed on, then add things like VCU (if required) and whatever fun bits you want, then the purchase price, and if you can but a good one with MOT for the same price then dump it.
I bought a very clean 04 1.8 K series 104,000 miles with 11 months MOT and 5 good tyres for £1500. Granted the VCU is shot and a few other bits and pieces need sorted but it is on the road for well under £1600.
I need to replace a large chunk of the exhaust so I'll replace (or maybe try resoldering) the sensor as one of the first jobs.
I'll be posting a few pics for advice soon as she has peed on the floor in a range of ways!.
