I have been told that it is always a good idea to take the car for an "Italian tune-up" the morning before you drop it off for its MOT. A good long hard blast, plenty of low gear revs and full throttle to blow out all the rubbish and get the engine thoroughly hot. Could well make a difference in a marginal emissions case.

On the classic range rovers I used to spray water into the air inlet using a house plant sprayer, hold the rpm at 2k and spray like mad.
