I'd consider all the parts you've mentioned as general wear and tear parts. Especially if your banging from Lanark to Newcastle every few weeks, any car would suffer from similar wear and tear.
And just think, when you've got those simple bits fixed, they shouldn't need doing again for a good while.
I've just got a new clutch fitted on my Stilo, even that is a wear and tear item, a garage can fit it pretty easily and quickly.
Compare and contrast with my old mini, I've just had to rewire part of the loom, will have to fit a new reverse light switch, and the doozy, weld in a large chunk of inner sill and that's just the stuff I've noticed in a quick check before its MOT next month.
