OK so it is overdue for an MOT. Probably done 1000 miles in the year, barn stored.

Couple of advisories on last years.... brake pipes slightly corroded near flex hose
joint and inner side walls slightly deteriorated on rear tyres.

Not much I can do about the tyres but wire brush off any brake pipe rust and coat
with..?

The first thing any Test Centre will do is check any advisories
from last year either on paper of if necessary online,
and check whether the necessary work has actually been carried out,
rather than simply covered up; which would probably guarantee a
fail. Even if the paper "certificate" is incomplete advisories are
also held on the central VOSA database. The bit of paper you get
rather than being a "certificate" is in fact simply a printout
of this.
