If it got canaries for those things it's fair call, I know, they know it, why fight it, just saying, a laminated windscreen doesn't shatter, it's not an excuse, it's fact.
A chip will crack, but until something goes through that windscreen it's just a crack, I would say fair call if it were in your field of vision, but it's not, yes it will be replaced, but as it is, it doesn't pose a threat to you or any other road user except myself. So your argument is void.
Everything else works as it should, most of the suspension is new, lights all work, it got pulled off the road to fix a engine leak because yes, that does pose a threat to others. But for those simple two things, it puts it under the unroadworthy category and in your eyes as a **** box that shouldn't be near a road.
