MOT Time - bit of advice please!

1. No front mud flaps
2. No rear anti-roll bar
3. Cracked front number plate - should I replace it?
4. Took one of the rear reflectors off to fit the wheel carrier / hi-lift
5. Tyres have plenty of shreds and rips, but are otherwise sound

Time for the Defender to go in for it's MOT and just got a couple of questions... Will any of the following be issues?

1. No front mud flaps - mud flaps not part of MOT - or do you mean wheel arch extensions?
2. No rear anti-roll bar - if it was originally fitted with one, and there is evidence that it has been removed, then it should fail. However, because some Defenders never had them, some garages don't know better.
3. Cracked front number plate - should I replace it? - yes.
4. Took one of the rear reflectors off to fit the wheel carrier / hi-lift - theoretically a fail, best stick one on.
5. Tyres have plenty of shreds and rips, but are otherwise sound - will fail if over a certain size or deep enough to expose the cords.

Will any of these cause me problems? And will it be OK at a 'regular' garage, or should I find someone who knows Landy's better?
