Way I looked at it was:
New driveshafts, £180 + fitting.
New wishbone £80 + fitting
New exhaust & sensors £200
Headlamps can be adjusted for free
Seatbelt, if you already have it can be bolted on free.
Brake fluid replaced & bled £60
New brake line £15~

You could probably get away with just a gaiter kit which will be around £100 fitted for both sides. Brake lines will be more than £15.

Its not too bad, just looks bad.

My last car required £1600 in parts for its MOT, it was swiftly auctioned Rolling Eyes

I wonder why I bother with this place, 4 years and all members do is slag each other off. Even Barry Boys seems a nicer place at times...
