You will get a one year certificate.

The change in law was introduced on June 1st 2011. After this date any vehicle coming for its 10th anniversary test will get a 1 year certificate.

The vehicle would need to have been tested and passed before June 1st 2011 in order to get a 2 year certificate.

As a vehicle can be tested up to three months in advance of it due date, the previous owner could have had the test done anytime during May.
