Sorry to hear the bad news :(

Mine went in on Wednesday and passed, with emissions significantly lower than last year... The only difference being v power rather than standard

Mine doesn't seem to bad on the rust front

Slaken the hand brake cable off by the leaver
Remove rear drums adjust rear shoes
repleace if required
make shore the lip on the drums is taken off
Then adust cable till it has little free play in it
Simple
