Ive got my car booked in for its Mot at 11am tomorrow and its previosuly failed on its emissions.

Ive got about a quarter of a tank of petrol in it and im gona pop sum redex in before i set off and run it in the morning.

Was just wondering how long or how far would you run it for so the cat is nice and hot for the MOT?

Cheers
