Could this be an MOT failure?

Car is due its MOT soon but I have a stone chip on a headlight.

Am I likely to get a failure for this?

Many thanks

At least as big.
I can take a pic of it tomorrow if you like, but it won't be until late afternoon.

only if it can let in water, in which case some sellotape will cure it.

I had a very similiar one and never had a problem with it at all.

Don't think it will fail, however, your man to ask is 'numbnuts' drop him a mail, he's an MOT tester.
