I'd just fix it too. Nothing difficult to fix out of that lot. All possible DIY too. Rear axle slightly more difficult but not entirely out of the question.

I've seen VOSA walk in to a garage & retest a car just after the garage mot tested it, they do go through them with a fine tooth comb.
Sooner or later dodgy mot places / testers get caught & dealt with as VOSA do random checks on mot places / testers

I knew a mot tester fail his own car on a old fiesta mk4 as the hazzard warning button was loose and kept falling off, i dont agree with how tight some of them are but rules are rules
