    Yes and yes, some have trouble with 100cel ones, some don't. I've got a 200cel in mine.

    used more then once since i have my drivers license, for road use go 200 cell (doesn't really matter what make/model). Most of the new ones are E approved so fully legal to use on the road.

    i think a 100 cell will fly through a mot as long as your car is healthy and all sensors are working as they should be

    I'll be looking to get a race cat/ downpipe combo in January, not going to pass an MOT without it I doubt.
