From the MOT history, I feel that whoever owned it prior to the Car sales buying it, only really sorted things when they were flagged up at MOT time. Doesn't seem as if much preventative maintenance was carried out, that would ring alarm bells for me and if it was me I would keep looking but only my opinion.
Tyres failing an MOT really shouldn't be happening.

Get a fault reader on it to see what’s been going, if no faults showing it’s been cleared so exercise even more caution.
