This will be like this whole thing that if a car has ABS fitted, it must work, same as traction control.
The system is so flawed since if you have a car that it was an option... The DVLA computer apparently says it does/doesn't but half the time is wrong. You can't just go failing cars that don't have ABS because the computer is wrong.
There is also no real way of accurately testing if the DPF is missing other than visual.
Also - hilarious how the Transport minister is going on about "undoing all the hard work" of companies - has he not yet realised yet that cars are only designed to pass the emissions basically on ONE day when they went for their eurov certification... Look at EGR - after about 2000 miles it's f*cked and doesn't work correctly anymore.
