You may as well just quit while you're ahead and buy an F15 - I reckon the cost will end up the same!
I would just do the basic maintenance items, drive it for a bit, and start replacing things as they come up in order of priority.
Sometimes with cars, you've got to remind yourself that 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'.......the amount of times I've pre-emptively replaced something only to end up way way down the rabbit hole.....
.....like the time I broke a wheel stud, and ended up replacing every suspension bushing, installing coilovers, adjustable arms, rebuilding the calipers and all in all having the car off the road for 2 months.......
