I had to raise mine quite a bit to get the jack to go underneath my car which was a drive on type and also to do the brake testing on the rollers.

you will need to raise it ..
as said brake testing on the rollers. the car will drop a good 3" into the roller..
just put some elecy tape to mark where it is know then you can drop it to were it was after the mot..
