If your car is registered before '95 and it is an import then it will pass at that

No mate, think you should be OK with that. That makes it a pre '95 import no cat required

Read this and answer yes-yes-no.

Just make sure you tell the tester that it is a pre '95 import, you can even take your V5 as proof
