If the car was bought private then unfortunately you've just been unlucky. These cars are 11 years old at the very least so are starting to age. If you like the car then repair it as you may get another needing more work. Only you can decide how 'attached' you've become. Sort the springs and brake pipes for the mot to start with, the discs are probably OK for the mot other than an advise if they meet efficiency. The headlight height adjustment should be sortable via one of the traders.

'Marmite' Possibly one of the most famous 75 tourers produced! left the production line as the last of only Three Rover 75 tourers produced in Trophy Yellow. 48 hours later Longbridge closed. The last sold ordered 75 Tourer. Paid for by the Phoenix Four and handed over by John Towers to the Warwickshire Northampton Air ambulance service as a Rapid Response vehicle
