DPF is fitted to new diesel cars, mandatory after 2009 when euro 5 standards came along.
If the car has had a dpf fitted new and manufactured before September 2009, it will only be designed to euro 4 emissions then you could potentially rule bend there if someone had removed a dpf. since DPF wasn't mandatory on euro 4 cars.
I guess this is going to become one of those "famous" grey areas nobody really knows about
But remember Renault made the 1.5dCi which is EuroV compliant but doesn't have a DPF...
