I’d get a quote to sort out from the dealer. What’s the asking price? Sounds like more trouble than it’s worth, why not find a car in better condition?

The paint damage, front lip wear and interior wear are things you can use to drive the price down, but in the end you need to accept the state it’s in. Front lip is easy to replace.

The seat errors will likely relate to one of the wires being damaged due to being pinched when the seat position is adjusted. Not a major.

The nail should be removed and tyre replaced or patched.

I’d get the codes cleared and a retest done after driving for 30 minutes and using each system.

Do what they say, charge the battery, clear the codes and test.
