Well. Yes, and no. It needs to pass the "catalyst" MOT test, so in practice it needs a cat fitted.

Or you mean it needs to pass the emissions test ... which it could technically do without the cat, but highly unlikely on a standard car running standard engine management. I think?

Even if it could pass the emissions test without a cat, isn't one of the new MOT rules that a cat must be fitted if it had one when it left the factory? Could be wrong, but I'm sure I read that somewhere a few months back.

Yeah that's what I've read too

Yes it needs a cat. It will fail without one under the new regs.
