Rover 75 1.8 Club SE T 2003 maintenance

Hi just had the car serviced (77000) also replaced the cambelt and water pump. The garage also replaced front / rear / centre brake pipes. They noted that there was play in the NSF bottom ball joint would it be better to replace the OSF/NSF at the same time. Also they mentioned the rear discs corroded on edges, do I need to be immediately concerned regarding the replacement of discs or ball joints

many thanks

If you have to choose, I'd say the front wishbone/s are more important than rusty rear disk edges. All disk edges rust, it depends if it runs onto the face which isn't so good. Disks are a simple DIY job anyway.
