You're from Portsmouth! I'm from Fareham, hello local-ish fellow 306 owner!
That list no where near sounds like £400 worth of stuff to fix, not even close. Perhaps go to a different garage and/or maintain & fix some of the things yourself?
Its always good to have a look over your own car a few weeks/months before its MOT, going by the MOT testing guide online. Check everything as per the testers guide (Google for it, its available from DVLA website I think). Make yourself a list & fix/replace anything you find suspect. It'll be a lot less shocking when it comes to MOT that way, not to mention cheaper.
