Tougher MOT Test from May:
Besides being much tougher, which'll suit the garage trade, getting it done early COULD land you with
problems in not being able to drive it if certain faults identified.

Early MOT testing could bring new problems
It could possibly lead to problems with those of you that have made changes to the standard equipment on your vehicle ie DRL module, oversized tyres, adding multiple louder horns. Any engine retunes or remaps may have got you more power but may also mean an instant fail on the emissions test.

UPDATE
I wonder from reading piece below, if "STOP/ START" error message displaying during test would result in fail?

Now had clarification that if the STOP/ START warning message is lit on your dashboard it
will not cause an automatic failure under NEW MOT rules coming in soon. (Most other
dashboard warnings will).
