Might be interested as I need a car to go get my stuff from France.
But broken spring and leaking shock will be a fail.

Probably won't work as I'm in NI. The MOT Centre didn't detect the spring or shock issue. They found the excessively worn brake pad. The spring and shock are at issues are at the same corner.
I bit my tongue and accepted the 'excessively worn' thing but the car passed the brake test therefore. My head said that an excessively worn tyre is ok providing its depth is legal.
If you have a genuine interest, drop me a PM and I will see what works. I can get it MOTed if needed but from this point on - I'm not footing the bill.
Full disclosure - I want rid with no hassle 😀UPDATE - new car has arrived. Agreed sale of old car to my mechanic for £450. He has the skills to sort it out at minimal cost - which I wasn't prepared to do.
He bought my last A6 and had 7 years of driving from it - it would be good if the same happens with this one but I don't think it will last unfortunately.
