You testers out there.
Might be going to look at a 1.9 cheap as chips. It sounds like it's a non runner but I didn't realise you could pass an mot without an emissions test?

You cannot pass and MOT without carrying out an emission test. If the vehicle was presented as a non runner then the vehicle would not have been tested, or refusal to test. The sheet that you have displayed shows the vehicle has failed due to poor running and such that it would need to be rectified in order to carryout the emission test.
If the test station have passed any vehicles without emission testing then the would contravene the inspection and should be brought to the attention of the ministry.
As far as the rough running... that could be a very easy fix.
1.9L 8V - Check PCV.
Run engine to operating temperature and observe the engine tone, if it begins to run rough as it gets warm.
Try to remove the oil filler cap with engine running, if you felt resistance when attempting to remove the oil filler cap.
This could be a likely sign of a PCV issue. I have seen some emissions readings out of specification related to this. Fuel pressure reading slow and delayed and also EML light faults P141 and P171.
