i dont think its a mot failure mine passed last year without it but then as with most mots it depends on the mood of the tester...

if you take it off just take it easy when cornering and you should be fine i've had no problems with mine
if in doubt, FLAT OUT!

Its a 5 min job to remove (provided the bolts havn't seized) and refit, jus keep it in the shed and if MOT man does have a problem refit it.

handles fine without it. i can do little drifts on really wet days without to much body roll. mine also went through the mot without it. :lol:
