Well, I like my 2.7 diesel BUT it has NOT got a DPF filter. Reasons? my car useage would be no good at all with a DPF, they are disliked by most people (they DO cause problems), and DPF's are forced on us by the EU.
So, IF I were to change my Jaguar for a newer model, it would have to be a 3 litre petrol. No DPF's for me.
I gave mine a blast down to Dover and back just over a week ago, I cruised it "quickly"
and I averaged over 40mpg.
As a little side note, my brother has recently retired after 30+ years with VOSA, he's run diesel engined cars for as long as he can remember, as a little retirement pressie he has ordered a new Audi A1, he's gone for a 1.4 petrol engine wholly because of the DPF thing.
