Try a different MOT station.
Ground clearance can`t be an issue as the car was homolgated like it is.
I have similar discussions with the ecomobile nearly each time. Till now I won them all.

Best one is that the test engineers have to do a test drive with motorbikes and the eco is registered as one.
With the eco the simply can`t;-)

And it is written in the homologation papers that driving on public roads is only allowed after special training.

MOT engineers do not like this part...
