New MOT and freelander 1 2001

Hi all.
Just wondered if any of you have had any issues with their hippo and the new MOT standard.
I have a 2001 1.8 K series.
3 of my fellow owners from here in west Midlands and 1 in Cornwall.
Have all had there's fail for a few things but mainly having no prop shaft to rear wheels. Anyone know what this is about?

Inspection of "all transmission shafts" was added last year to the MOT, no doubt somewhere in the new manual the fact it is missing now warrants a failure.

Thanks for your advice guys.
So my hippo came without the prop shaft so advice please.
How easy is it to fit one?
Is there other things like rear d riveshafts etc I should check first and if so how and what do I look for?
I've done a front drive shaft and another to do.
All info welcome guys.
Thanks
