I'd spend the €200 on getting it a fresh NCT to make it sellable. With a fresh NCT surely you would get €1500 for it? You will only get about €100 scrap value for it.

Discs and a bearing are just wear and tear given the age of it, if it hasn't given any trouble until this point I'd keep it going, no need to get rid of it unless you genuinely fancy a change of car.
