   Probably get an advisory as it leaves sharp ends when the grille is off. Meaning if you hit some pedestrian it will hurt them bad. Depends on tester tho.

   Mine failed an MOT for no grill
   Something about sharp edges etc
   Guess its down to how picky the MOT tester is

    the rules state that if there are sharp edges exposed then its a fail. Therefore your car will fail if the tester goes by the rules.
    
    we would fail it at our garage
