It should be just like any other MOT

I spoke to an MOT tester and he said he'd do mine the same as any other car. If it needs a cat because of the age then obviously you might need to sort that for the emissions. But I believe you need to prove the age of the engine if you want it MOT'd without one.

It's just a car. It gets tested like any other car.
