DPF option

The Ford web site http://www.ford.co.uk/Cars/Fiesta/Enginesandtechnology gives the 1.6 diesel engine as available with or without a DPF. I would like to purchase a Fiesta without a DPF, as I will be reducing my longer trips, but I can find no mention of the option elsewhere at Ford.

Can you point me in the right direction where I can buy please.

You can't get it without a DPF.

The old 1.6TDCI 90 could pass EU4 regulations without a DPF.

But they all need one for EU5 regulations.

That said the Fiesta ECOnetic does not have a Dual Mass Flywheel.

The job is accomplished by engine management.
