What does DPFS mean.

Post by pete » Mon Jun 18, 2007 9:16 pm

In the adverts for a few Citroens they specify (non-DPFS). Always in brackets. Anyone any ideas??

Something that I was just questioning as I ordered this new Focus TDcI.

You pay £400 extra for it, and it traps soot or something similar, tis a Particulate Filter, so if you keep your car for a zillion years, it is the equivalent saving of a jumbo jet travelling 1.65".

However, as I is able as a retired Brotherhood of Man to lie in bed, electrically reclining, heated, and massaging, in the mornings, and browse the web with the lightweight notebook, ignoring all the porn that my spam folder is crying out for me to sample, but instead diligently checking out all the options for chipping the car out from 136hp to 163, and a mountain of torque............I realise that I can not remember how I was going to finish this sentence.

I don't think that's an appropriate response to a reasonable question.

Googled non-DPFS. Not DPFS. Doh.

(Folk's are looking for a new car and they have a friendly Peugot Citroen mechanic. C4 has loads of toys, if you like that sort of thing and fits their requirements. Did seem a tad harsh....)

Absolutely Iain.

Tis a Motability car, so nobody under 25 allowed on the Insurance.

You sure? Both My brother, 22, and myself (a mere 24) are on the insurance on my mum's mobility focus.

Bloody good job and all.

Yep, bit darker than that though, Ocean Blue.

Just about to order the Spider chip for it, ups the hp from 135 to 163 and the torque from a lot to an awful lot.

My bro (21) is on my dads motability insurance and I was when I was under 25. Maybe Tuts is different with him being through the war pension scheme thingy though?
