Technical Worth fixing and how much?

It's the labor cost that's a killer especially on the suspension. I can't tell you if it's worth it, obviously up to you. However over across the pond it's still probably half the cost it would be over here. Over here you might have have to take out a loan on your home.

Kind of depends on age, mileage and condition.

In general I'd say they are all easy fixes, £200 max for parts.

2010, 72k miles and honestly drives a dream and other than these issues has been perfect. Had a slump recently where general maintenance has fallen off, ie worn tyres and things i’d usually stay on top off. But other than that, it’s all good. Had a garage quote me over £1000

Wow, that is cheap. That job is 3k min. over here, and you have to bring your own condoms.

In the current market it's probably worth £3k-£4k, so £1000 is worth it even just to sell on.

The advisories could be skipped for now, and do in a month or two if you needed to split the cost.

Biggest pain is you have to remove front bumper the swap the lower suspension.. Time consuming task

As above parts are pretty reasonable

Yes, worth fixing, can you do some of it?
Two new handbrake cables and some tlc should fix that, not expensive £30/40
Front suspension is quite doable better when it's warmer mind, about £150 in parts
Have some one do the lower control arm?

Deffo worth doing/ getting done.
