Hi Adam

Good luck with the sale. You might help the process if were specific about te MoT failure points and any advisories.

Yoiu mention that they're typical and age-related. At £400 I'm guessing at things like suspennsion bushes or tyres etc.

With 12 months MoT and a low mileage for it's age your car is worth £1200, maybe more.

With no MoT it's worth not much more than scrap value sadly. Bear in mind that as it has no MoT a buyer couldn't legally even drive it home, as it's an auto the only transport option is a low-loader, which at £several per mile, severly restricts your potential target buyer to the immediate local vicinity.

Think of it this way, your buyer is going to have to arrange repairs and an MoT local to you before they can even drive the car, so unless they happen to live just around the corner it's limiting your market a bit.

Good luck

The car looks good in the pics and sounds nice in your description.

Cheers

Jack
