...so after a bit of a nightmare of a weekend in terms of sorting the car, I turned it on and......nothing, no beeps 
Actually hadn't realised how much difference the brake check warning made the car feel less quality. Pedal feel is much improved too.
Add in the improvement of
Replacement bomb and ps fluid
Replacement PS hose to bomb has silenced the whine i had
New front discs and pads
Calipers cleaned up
Fresh front wishbone bushes - amazed how much slop there was on the front from tired bushes and the knock i thought was from the top mount was in fact the bushes!
Replacement nearside front outer cv joint
Cleaned and re-greased inner cv and suddenly the car is feeling a whole lot more pleasant to drive.
New air filter
Drain and renew oil and fresh filter.
Next up, prop refurbishment and replacing the rear diff seals and then down to crossing fingers to get it through the MOT next month.
