Don't even need a fake cat if you just point to the back box they cant complain as the smog test is all that matters on the LPG test but you need to have it showing on your V5 which also gets a road tax reduction as well and possibly something in the congestion zone.

I think your wrong there as after a certain year all cars have to have a cat fitted even if they can go thru an emissions test without one and all LPG cars fire up on petrol (even though the cat wont be hot enough to work) might be wrong though My MOT station when i asked (my cats are gutted) wanted to know if it 'appeared' to have cats fitted, I also know of one guy who had a prohibition put on his car by VOSA because it was catless and needed one due to year of manufacture.

Sad really as its easy enough to get even big petrol V8s through emissions tests without cats if they are not overly worn and properly tuned (Ive seen it done with dinosaur carburettor technology, FI engines are easier) Lloyd Barnes
