For the MOT test, you mean?

yeah, it should be a figure somewhere between 0 - 300 measured in g c02/km

I think you might be getting confused between the MOT test and the emissions figure used for vehicle road fund licence? The MOT doesn't have a CO2 test element. The type approval process that all new cars are put through measures the CO2 output over a standard journey and this is published and is what is used to calculate the road fund licence band. That is why cars like the Williams will be plonked into a 'before 2001' category and charged an amount not based on CO2 emissions as noone knows what they would be.
