It sounds like rust is the biggest heartbreaker in these MOT tests.
Cars must rust a lot in the UK.  At one point Pennsylvania had
a fairly strict inspection, where holes rusted through the bodywork
would make the car fail.  I remember hearing stories of people doing dubious
things to their cars, Bondo-wise, to get them to pass.
