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!
