Agree. I always like to get my advisories done straight after the MOT , but my previous cars have all been immaculate with an impeccable service history, so its always paid dividends when I came to sell as it showed a caring owner.

With yours I wouldn't bother.as the cosmetic issues will already set it back from any better models out there for sale. Although I'd maybe put on a better part worn tyre and fix the exhaust shield as they can be cheaply and easily remedied

If this car change was only about money -is not the cheapest way forward here to get the advisories done and keep the car rather than risking a poor price for the Fiesta and the financial uncertainty of whatever your next vehicle has hiding under its bonnet etc

Agree. These days decent used cars can be easily sellable, while finding a better replacement may be tricky. If this Fiesta looks worth preserving, best to do that, as you can be more certain of the way forward - unless it is going to cost a lot to do.
