I know its quite a big list and i could just google them all but maybe you guys recognise a common fault there and can save me a bit of time with a easy fix. not bothered bout the telephone ones to be honest.

The car appears to have parking sensors on the rear but no button inside the car to suggest that? i could of sworn they work working so was testing it on my drive very slowly and ended up bumping into my fence!

Also the low windscreen fluid icon is on topped it up with a hose pipe and let it all run through it ran out after about 1 minute of it continuously been on so topped it up again and the light still on so im thinking ill just replace the washer fluid bottle and it should fix that?

Also boot latch doesn't work but can manually unlock it from inside the car. guessing i can just buy a new latch and replace it and it should be ok.

Also how can i check the engine code because it didnt come with the service booklet as it was a ex fleet vehicle

Any help would be appreciated thanks. (sounds like ive bought a right lemon but im sure these problems arent that big of a challenge)
 
Just looked through the first few and they appear quite old, isolated occurrences which are obviously historic and so may well have been subsequently fixed/rectified. I would start by deleting them all and check which ones reoccur at the present time.

I did a first scan and cleared everything then turned car off and back on again then did another scan and this is what was left of them. Do you reckon i should go on a drive first and see what comes up after it?
 
Some definitely look historic. For example the first "engine" one says it occurred once on 23 April 2016
 
If you attempted to delete 23.04.2016. error and it did not get deleted, then it means you still need to replace that glow plug probably.

To me it sounds like a lemon to be honest with added bonus of turbo overboost error code (sticky veins?).
