The 3 were:

Offside headlight too low (imported from America, and I hadn't even set them up properly, so surprised the nearside was spot on)

Anti Rollbar Links rubber ducked

Excessive play in nearside lower suspension ball.

Always fails on suspension every MOT because of how low the car is

TBH thats not a bad failure sheet for a car of that age. Headlights are just a screw Id guess, link arms and a ball joint wont be expensive, more the labour needed to change them - the most tricky being the ball joint - cant remember if they needed pressing in / out... think

Think Micra one of the cars that it is ten times easier to replace the Wishbone.
