check all bulbs, cv boots are easy to check your self if you dont mind getting under the car, as if they are split it will fail.
Check the b pillars and see if they are cracked as its a common problem but mainly on the older ones, can fail for this too.
As long as brakes and handbrake are working properly etc there's not much else you can check mate

Just before you take it in the garage.

Take it for a quick thrash down a private road

Gets all the shit out of the exhaust that may cause to fail on emmisions
