Its still got mot until the old one expires, VT30 is refusal of mot but does not cancel out time left on old one. A tester can only advise a car has a dangerous defect but can't prohibit it from the road however if you were pulled over for a roadside check they could.

I believe they can, but not on a fail certificate, different paperwork.

I am a tester, there is no seperate paperwork, vt30 is refusal, vt32 is advisory, vt 20 is a pass, a dangerous marker can be put on an advisory sheet but thats it. If you bring a car for mot it either gets a pass, fail, or pass with advisory items.

Too save confusion can you confirm if a car has a current mot...its brought in and tested but fails the old mot is still valid until the expiry date.

Existing MOT cert is valid until expiry date, unless PG9/VG9 Prohibition Notice issued by police/VOSA at a roadside check, thereafter vehicle requires full new MOT before car can legally be driven on a road....
