That does make sense, emissions wise.

For a converted car, it's whichever is older, the engine OR the vehicle- https://www.mot-testing.service.gov.uk/ ... 000301.htm
The vehicle won't be an issue as the date of first use/registration will be on the V5C.Otoh for the engine you have to be able to convince the tester of its year of manufacture.
The 3S-GTE was never fitted to a MR2 sold in the UK market.So there is no exact match in the In service exhaust emission standards for road vehicles Eighteenth edition.

Therefore the following flowchart needs to be used to determine the correct test to be carried out- https://www.mot-testing.service.gov.uk/ ... 000309.htm
As can be seen the crucial date is 1st August 1995* as that is when the lower limits become operative.
* Especially if you have a decat downpipe.
