Default Mot Berkshire, Newbury, Reading decat

Hi, mot is due on my 05 blobeye sti, car has no cats. Unfortunately I do not have any parts of the original exhausts, so emissions would need to be overlooked.

If anyone could help that would be great, I am located in Newbury, Reading area.

You could try Len Carlyon at Subaru 4 You in Newbury. Faraday Ind. Estate.
His garage is next door to a place that does his MOT's, may be worth a call.


I can't vouch for the MOT place as I'm about to get my first MOT done there, but I trust Len, so I'm sure they're fine.

Broadcasting it openly on a public forum is probably not the way to go about it, keep it to pms instead and let the tester keep his mot licence lads.

That would be illegal to overlook emissions
I guess you would only need a downpipe


Contact mattybr5 breaker on here he'll sort you the exhaust cats out can't be that expensive then you can go anywhere and get yourself a road legal mot certificate then change it over after as I doubt any mot tester would do such thing and risk his license for any T - D - H

Len does my MOTs and be assured if your car can't meet emmision requirements it will fail.
