Does the 2009 Peugeot 207 SW have a DPF and a dual mass flywheel?
I'm thinking of buying a 2009 Peugeot 207 SW but I have a couple of questions. Does it have a dual mass flywheel and are there any known problems? Does it have a diesel particulate filter, and if so what changes of driving style would avoid problems? I've not had a diesel car before, so any advice appreciated.

Yes. The 90 might not have a DPF (Peugeot calls it a FAP). If it does, it needs driving a lot. It's no use for a life of short runs.
