hopefully I can attach pics here for calipers and handbrake cable ! looking at everything I cannot see how it fails to offer enough braking to fail MOT but it does! I am beginning to suspect a pad/disc issue as surface is like looking in a mirror .very highly polished compared to my modern car with dull metal discs. so thinking of changing pads to another type and roughing up surface of disc with enemy cloth! see if. friction increases? handbrake cable slack is about 20mm with actuating lever arms on calipers back on stops ( about 2-3mm away actually) when cable is tuat after pulling handbrake on ..I have actuating arms about 50-60% along travel path? not sure I explained that bit well but do check pics.
