To buy or not to buy - Front Ball Joint/MOT Advisories

Hi guys!

I'm new to the Jimny but after some research I think it could be the 4x4 for me! I've seen a 2006 model at a garage in my local area for £3500. It has 90,000 on the clock and is MOT'd until July 2020. Looking at it's previous 2 mots it has these advisories:

2019

Repair as soon as possible (minor defects):

Offside Front Track rod end ball joint dust cover damaged or deteriorated, but preventing the ingress of dirt off drop arm (2.1.3 (g) (i))

Monitor and repair if necessary (advisories):
Nearside Front Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge worn slightly outer edge (5.2.3 (e))
Nearside Front Oil leak, but not excessive swivel hub area (8.4.1 (a) (i))
Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint has slight play (5.3.4 (a) (i))

2018

Repair as soon as possible (minor defects):
Offside Track rod end ball joint dust cover damaged or deteriorated, but preventing the ingress of dirt off steering box drop arm (2.1.3 (g) (i))

Monitor and repair if necessary (advisories):
Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint has slight play very slight (5.3.4 (a) (i))

The Ball joint and the oil leak seem like red flags to me but i'm no expert so just wanted to get some advice on whether to consider it or not and if so what to looking for when viewing

Thanks is advance!

Swivel hub oil leak means that the swivel bearings are worn. Not unusual, easy DIY fix, not too expensive if you are paying.
Ball joint dust cover is perished, has been for years, not expensive to replace.
Anti-roll bar drop link has play in it, not an issue, a new one is easy to fit, but better buy a decent one, the worn one will outlast a £7 eBay special.

Budget for the repairs, and buy it if the gearbox is quiet and there is no rust under the headlights, in the tool tray, at the back or front of the rear arches or under the rear seats.

No idea if the price is right, I got stupid money for my 2001 as a trade in, and I'm sure it sold for even more stupid money- probably more than I paid for it in 2009.

All of the MOT stuff is simple really. as mentioned, rust is the only thing to worry about really.

The gearbox issue mentioned is shown by bearing noises in certain gears when on and off the throttle. Its often caused by the intermediate prop shaft leaking (or the seal), leading to bearing failure. Therefore check under the car where the gearbox joins to the transfer box for oil spatter or oil around the area after a test run if its not got history of a rebuild. A rebuild is £500-700, plus labour of removing the box and refitting generally.
