Yes.....if its an import upto MY94 then it should be ok as they are not listed on the MOT data base.They only have to pass the default limits.
Any other model is at the peril of the tester

or find a sensible tester.

You will no doubt have replies from people telling you its illegal not to have a cat fitted..blah blah blah
