Service rule setc here then ahgain these were the rule not the ideal amount of time to do things...
Yor living in Albania the country?
Depending on the laws of the country could always just register it in the Uk and SVA it and then keep it over there on a foreign plate and since its SVA'd no need for an MOT for 3 years.
As regards in the Uk making it legal (laws of the country would...
The front disk look like they have them but they don't.
The rear on cars with abs have rings fitted the CUp doesn't have ABS but they didn't delte them form the parts list to build up the brakes for simplicity so whilst there there there no need to be there both legally or for any abs braking...
As i said earlier the fronts don't have teeth they look like they but there not the abs teeth for the front on the abs cars are on the driveshaft.
The rears since they use the same parts have the teeth rings in the disk they can be removed it doens't matter Renault use the stock parts they...
SOunds like the engine mounts worn check them all out.
The stearing racks if that got an advisory well sorry to say this but second hand rack time there not cheap new and a bit of a pain to change unless you've ramps etc.
The easy cheap repair is for Mk1 owners only.

Unfortunatly unless you know what broken cannot even guess a cost.
£40 or so for the tracking to be done best pick a place who know what there doing (often a back street garage knows more about how to set cars up than a delaership with a few K worth of setup tools and jigs etc)

Yep get the tracking checked also check for play in the suspensionnand broken bits etc.
The stock car doens't suffer from it the 172 does abit but that ~70% more power than you have so more understandable. Therefore you don't need any other bits strut brace and it woulnd't help anyway.
Buy a second gearbox its cheaper and replace as and when it is unlikyl to break though that often then again they don't win any awardsas gearboxs go.
Cost and effrot are huge a proper job involves most of the car being rewired ne ECU etc plus need the pedal fitting etc.
Forget that stick with the stock brembo or stock stock ones there way cheaper you cna get Yozzasports ds2500 pads, brakes lines and brembo disks for that price I think delivered.
All this drilled stuffs a waste just for looks.
There not abs teeth the front abs teeth are on the driveshfat only the rear has the rings as part of the disk the Cups have the rings there (they are removable at the back disk) but they don't need them.
