which doozils have cat then, and not a particulate filter?
Most of them unless made after about 2005. In which case they would have both.
i stand corrected checked paperwork this morning and it only applies to a full cat test ie petrols
...and if you can't see with the standard lights at the speed a P38 will go then you shouldn't have a licence
but DT, yours is a doezil
you would be fine, as you wouldn't need an MoT since the car wouldn't start. No need for road tax or insurance either

I saw exhausts for sale at billing with fake cats in the pipe work

There is no part of the MOT test at the moment that can determine emissions on a diesel engine, gas particle or otherwise. There is only a smoke density check. The part about "Check for the presence of a catalytic converter if one was fitted as standard". Only appears in the petrol full cat test routine. It is NOT mentioned in the diesel test routine as a reason for refusal. So as far as the MOT is concerned there is no reason to fail a diesel if the cat has been removed. However it is illegal to remove it under construction and use regulations. I think that is the regulation referred to in the DFT answer.
