My 29th May 2019 MOT will now remain valid until 29th November. My 29th May 2019 MOT rather than being a 12 month MOT, changed to become an 18 month MOT because of the virus.

I agree- the MOT stations will have a lean time for the next 6 months.
No, I am not sure I have missed the point. The 6 month extension is for all from 1st April, but as I understand it, when the problem is over, there will still be cars which have not needed the extension and will not therefore qualify. I hope I am wrong, but I rarely expect officials to get it right.
