I'd get the Airbag warning issue sorted as the MOT's are about to get stricter in the next few months. Airbag faults will result in a failure on the MOT so I'd get it looked at pronto.

I think that rule is in already. It'll be best to find out why the light is on first. With an early p2, it could have had a dim repair, not done poperly but considering its age, it'll be due its official airbag service any way (mine's due next year :(
