DPF on a Skoda 1.9 TDI
I am thinking of buying a 60 plate Skoda 1.9 TDI PD and can't get a definitive answer to the question of does this engine have a DPF fitted. I've asked a similar question before but based on the garages response would like clarification?

2010 was the year when every manufacturer started fitting DPFs in order to comply with the regs that came into force in January 2011. So a 2011/60 would have to have one. But 1.9 TDI generally complied with EU5 without one so they were not generally fitted before then.
