Legally, MOT testers cannot remove anything from the vehicle so if he cant see it, he cant fail it.
Trust me, has worked for over 10 years of getting illegal motorcycle exhausts thru MOTs! :whistle:
your wrong we can remove thing from the car on test ie fuel cap, any thing stuck to the screen/mirror causing an odstruction any trim panel the only thing you cant do is use tools to remove any thing ie engine covers/trims
as for the tape on the tyre id remove it due to it may be hiding damage to the side wall
