it will fail when the MOT tester goes to lean on it and slips off from all the wax.

Should pass I think

Mine passed its 1st MOT, no advisories and the MOT didn't even cost me anything as I had it done at Audi

As said its a 3 year old car... should be fine. I had mine done a couple of weeks early so that if anything was wrong it'd be fixed on the warranty.
