Note: A durable repair to an exhaust system which effectively prevents leaks is acceptable providing the system is structurally sound

so as long as the bandage is in good condition ......  and the whole exhaust is not hanging ...  ??  :)

]Exhaust bandage is prob a fail[/highlight], but the manifold gasket shouldn't be. They run it warm all the time to do the emissions test.

Ive been told....as long as the bandage isnt leaking its ok......but are MOT testers on this site still present to tell me for sure   :-/
AFAIK if its gas tight, ie not blowing it will pass the MOT. But with yours being a private hire test I don't have a clue, up here they can fail for having different coloured panels so anythings possible depending on what the council stipulate I suppose.

Its normal MOT....plus stupid things like....first aid kit.....fire extinguisher....clean car.....inside and out  :o

Oh dear :-[

Just don't park it next to me, AA or Miggy and you'll be fine Dave  :y

bandage will be OK as long as it's not blowing, and the exhaust is secure.
