Cars in for its first mot in my ownership tomorrow. Passed last year with just an advisory on front brake hoses. Still haven't replaced them so what do we reckon. Pass or fail?

Actually the garage I'm taking it to, they may have already printed out a pass certificate.
Put it this way, if they passed grants car with no advisories, I'm going to be shocked if they fail mine!
Might fail on headlight alignment as they haven't been done since fitted but most garages just do that there and then!
