Looks lovely - but I see you have removed the EGR. You might have a problem with MOTs as I understood that from May 2018 the rules change and EGR removal is an automatic fail regardless of the emission readings. Or at least that is what my local MOT tester has told me.

Apparently they test for diesels will also involve plugging in code reader and checking all systems are working OK as well.

Hope that doesn't put a downer on it, or that I'm wrong - P 2000 TD5 Disco II, front and rear winches, 2" lift, ARB bumper etc.etc. --

I hadn't seen anything about it either, but I have removed the EGR from my TD5, the MOT tester mentioned the changes.

I mentioned it to the service manager at my local independent last week when the Freelander was serviced and he confirmed he had heard it too, but couldn't show me anything on paper.

Apparently part of the governments response to diesel emissions.

Ouch - just looked it up - from the new rules effective May 2018.

8.2.2.1 Exhaust emission control equipment
You only need to check components that are visible and identifiable, such as diesel oxidation catalysts, diesel particulate filters, exhaust gas recirculation valves and selective catalytic reduction valves.
If a diesel particulate filter has clearly been cut open and rewelded, you should reject it unless the vehicle presenter can show evidence that there was a valid reason to cut it open, such as for filter cleaning.
Defect

Category

(a) Emission control equipment fitted by the manufacturer missing, obviously modified or obviously defective
Major failure
(b) An induction or exhaust leak that could affect emissions levels
Major failure
(c) Evidence that the diesel particulate filter has been tampered with
Major failure

This from

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/syst...-draft.pdf
