Check your suspension. Got me on mine last time. Brake hoses too.

I agree with Waderider, check out ukmot. Every aspect of the Test is covered. I wish I'd seen it before having my Brava MOT'd last week.

It's probably good to get it serviced before the Test. Failing that a DIY service is better than nothing. Do all your regular checks, and if need be lash out on new oil/filters, plugs etc!) Make sure your lights work properly.
Don't take on anything you're not confident of doing, you could make things worse.

Hope your car passes!
