Have you taken your car for an MOT since removing the cats?? What did you replace the cats with?? My understanding is that a car that was made with cats...must have cats or it will fail the MOT??

I think its car made after a certain year (1994 ?) have a certain limit on emmissions, and that is achieved by fitting cats. The Senny had cats, but afaik there was nothing to stop you removing them.
An Omega would be a different story though. ;)

K reg onwards ie 1992 and as they made a Senator up to M reg it means that late Senators needed their cats fitted at least once a year for MOT.  ;) ;) ;)

If your taking the cats of a petrol motor make sure you have a friendly MOT Tester ;)

Yep, not a chance of it passing the emissions test without them (and these days they don't sap a lot of power).
