What it fails on, and why

A broken front spring is one of the most common failures on higher-mileage cars and is a straightforward replacement.
This covers a range of smaller items, from a non-working horn to a warning light left on.
A missing, damaged, dirty or incorrectly-spaced number plate, or one using the wrong font, will fail. A replacement plate is inexpensive.
