Will refit later, probably about 0 seconds before the MOT, although don't know if it would actually fail without it because it doesn't exceed any noise constraints

Seemed cheapest option
There's something in the MoT regs about the exhaust system being complete and if it isn't, it's a fail.

You'll also find in the meantime, fuel economy suffers and so will performance.
