Just passing on the answer to a specific question asked of 2 VOSA engineers who work in MOT policy nitros - in an attempt to clarify the answer to the questions posed in this thread.
Refresher ??

Thats what I take it to mean. A basic emissions test vs a full cat test: A vehicle that passes the BET doesn't meet the qualifications for a FULL test. If it was ALL cat equipped cars, the the manual might have told us to fail all cars listed in the emissions data book that had their cat missing. The answer to the question is no. If a vehicle is of an age where it requires a CAT test and the vehicle would of been fitted with one as standard then it is required to be there for the purpose of the MOT . If the CAT has been removed from a vehicle where one was fitted as standard then it would cause the vehicle to fail the MOT,even if it passes the BET test or the full CAT test. It will not matter what the out come of the metered test result is if the cat is missing then its a fail in its own right I think the thread was answered a while ago ;D
