I totally agree but to make a car that loud you would have to de cat and take out the res one would assume or just have a straight through pipe which would fail on emissions hence the MOT...To be fair some cars are pretty obnoxiously loud for no good reason. If they can wake you up by driving past your house, they are too loud.
MOTs only check if your car is safe, being a bit loud isnt really a safety issue (unless its REALLY loud), but it is a public order issue. Its not like its not impossible to sound good without being deafening.
I wonder if my stock R is louder than 70db with full beans lol

Mine passed its mot wiyh flying colours...@bigT's lcr you may be in trouble haha
I think it's discrimination on a hobby, we don't put camera's on traffic lights for anyone who doesn't have Speed blue paint...
If it passes an MOT then what more can we do...

@theoldboy what was the db of yours on the track?
Its usually limited to a distance though, not right at the end of the exhaust.
"All vehicles made since 2016 are legally limited to 74 decibels."
Hmmm....
Dirty Dirty Noisy Noisy exhaust!!
