Mazda 2 (2007) 1.5l - Repair Work Question
Hello, new to this forum!
I just took my Mazda 2 (07 plate) for an MOT which it passed, however has several of advisories as follows:
Whilst I know some are minor works such as the numberplate, I was wondering does anyone know roughly how serious these issues are, and roughly how much it may cost to repair? The car has done 95,000 miles if that helps. I don't know much about cars or anything so any advice on how much it would cost would be ideal so I can begin saving!
Thank you
