    I'm hoping to get a buyer quickly for this santa fe. It's not taxed or insured so I'm not driving it and we have a new car so really I just want rid. Needs a bit of work for the NCT. Is 550 reasonable or should we lower expectations?

    I mean the price is very low, if you had any interest at all I'd be taking almost any cash offered.

    Here's a really horrendous, and petrol one with NCT for around the same price:

    It's hideous, but I guess that's the competition you have to contend with!

    And as for your ad, this line is confusing:
    Its due NCT re-test by 20th August with new brake line hose front left, new shock absorber front right, and front right wheel bearing is loose.

    Does that mean that it needs to above to pass? Or are you saying that some(or all) of that has been done in preparation?

    I'm going to guess that the car needs that to pass.
    That's a good few hundred quid there in repairs and still not guaranteed to pass. Maybe stick it through the NCT and post a pic of the fail sheet so people know exactly what the car needs?
    Timing belt also will need doing.
    Tbh if you had the discs and pads replaced you should really have had the bearing done as well.

    Thanks for the advise. 450 to get past NCT.
