It can fail on the following:

A wiper installed for the use of the driver does not operate over an area of the windscreen large enough to give the driver an adequate view of the road (through the windscreen) to the left and right sides of the vehicle. as well as to the front

Ok. So my wiper starrts below the driver window border and finnishes 20cm from tax disk. Would you say that is ok?

8" blindspot is pretty massive....

It's in the eyes of either the MOT tester, or the VOSA / Police road side inspector.... which could issue a prohibition notice.

I'd probably be more worried of the strength in shear of a tack weld tbh
