Anonymous Unregistered A	Quote: definately illegal if it won't pass mot The problem is that you are required by law to have a cat (from a certain year) fitted regardless of the car passing an emissions test. It's crazy. but true . I got a race cat - I don't want the hassle come MOT time or being illegal. Not a lot of point paying the extra insurance for declaring all my mods and then making the car illegal.
