Erm... option 2 and 3...
who did the MOT? if it was them i would be speaking to VOSA tbh, or at least telling them you're going to be speaking to VOSA
the missfire will likely be a vacuum leak, it wont throw codes but will make it run like a bag of shit, my friend had it with his disastra!
mum had a focus from a ford dealership in huntingdon where we used to live.. it was genuinly immaculate.. went in for its service as part of her payment service plan thing, came back with a smashed front bumper grille, and dents and scuffs on most of the bumper's paintwork.. looked like it had been used as a dodgem.
they paid for a FULL respray and all the parts after it was indicated that she worked for a solicitors office.. so try your luck

"Second hand car from a dealer
When you buy a second hand car from a dealer, you have the right, under both the Consumer Rights Act (which replaces the Sale of Goods Act from 01 October 2015), to expect the car to:
be of satisfactory quality (taking into account its age and mileage)
meet any description given to you when you were buying it ( whether in the advert or in discussions prior to sale)
be fit for the purpose (for example, to get you from A to B safely)
If the second hand car does not meet these requirements, you have the right to claim against the dealer for breach of contract.
If something you buy is not 'as described', or if the seller is guilty of misrepresentation, you're entitled to:
give the second hand car back and get your money back
if you want to keep the car, ask for compensation (usually the cost of any repairs it needs)
But if you buy a second hand car that was not described as being in excellent condition or good working order and it breaks soon after you buy it, you don't have any right to reject it or to claim compensation."

Given the choice between Niall and the sheep. I would choose the sheep!
