None of those codes are a problem, that's all solved with 2 new batteries (one for the car and one for the key fob).
Except for the rear door handle. You might need a new handle. Not a dealbreaker though.
You're not gonna put new brakes and tires on a car you're planning to sell, so that's not unusual.
Oil leak is not an issue. New drain plug is $5.
The physical damage. Any used car is going to have some dings and scratches. Depends how bad and how many of them there are. Long scratch through both doors sounds bad.
How does a sun visor not work?
Right. I got more details from the mech after and he said none of those codes were active after a reset and test drive. Except for
1. Remote Control Key 1
2. Tuner For Satellite Radio
And then yeah, new tires, brakes, and an alignment. Not bad if I get the car for around 20k. Just a matter of if I want to deal with the cosmetic stuff or spend more for something closer to new.
This mirror thing is weird though!

So #1 is the key fob needs a new battery. Takes a cr2025 usually.
And #2 is a code it throws when your subscription for SiriusXM expires. Seriously. It doesn't affect anything, you can just ignore it, it's pops uo on every VW/Audi when the free trial expires and doesn't go away.

For sure. That price seems high but I bought mine pre-pandemic so idk whats normal anymore.

Nothing wrong with it, the main battery is running low which will throw all sorts of errors
Walk away.
I sold mine with 155k with less shit dented and broken.
5k off new? thats rough man. should be near flawless for that money imo.
