rear PLASTIC coated brake lines being rusty/dirty

Plastic coated pipes can still rust if the plastic has been cut/damaged in anyway. Usually though its just dirt on them that hasn't been cleaned off that causes problems.

get the brake and clutch out , clean up the pipes

and last but not least...NUMBER PLATES

You won't actually fail because of this. They just give you a written notice saying they are defective.

Speaking from experience forgot to stick on the proper ones before i took mine in.

i disagree... i failed because of mini metric number plates and a clip on the flexipipe to copper pipe on the brake hose, replaced the clip and put standard numberplates on and its ok.

I have had 2 cars fail because of the plates.

I just stuck my standard ones on top of my illegal ones with the smallest bit of double sided tape.

Just ripped em off straight after mot. You could clearly se the standard plates where stuck over the nice ones, but they did'nt worry

Saved me having to line up & center da sporty ones again
