Welding near the jacking point.
The drivers side brake hose is loose.
Passenger side front brake disc pitted.
Drivers side rear tyre split.
Passenger side front brake pipe corroded.

Drivers side front brake pipe corroded.
Anti roll bar bushes on the front have slight play.
Drivers side door jagged along bottom.
