The facelifted (post-2000) TDI's have a catalyst although I do not belive that it is required for the MOT. Unsure about earlier models though

If there is a hole in the exhaust (regardless of whether in the catalyst or elsewhere) it will fail. Dangerous exhasut gasses could be leaking into the passenger cabin instead of being disposed of at the back of the vehicle. Fail every time.

A problem being of course the noise caused by the missing 18 inches.... :blink:

All Shalaxys diesel and petrol have CATs.
