    I wonder if diesel vehicles with LPG fumigation (aka diesel-gas) suffer less from DPF issues?

    I'd still buy one over a modern diesel.

    And most of the latest are turbo charged and supercharged,so are certainly highly complicated.

    Agree but the tech in them had been fairly standardised and sorted for decades now whereas diesel tech is still evolving....and there's less interventions eg egr dpf etc to start with. Then there's issues such as less tolerance to poor fuel inc water in fuel causing catastrophic damage...

    ..oh and IMHO SCs and turbos are not complicated..they are simply pumps😎

    And an EGR is just a valve that opens and shuts,and a DPF just catches stuff and burns it off.
    What could possibly go wrong?

    I will be off to the dark side soon,more than likely another diesel.......
    The tax benefits on vehicle purchases are just a no brainer at the moment,for businesses.
    And if it can be ‘commercial’,that will be even better.

    I hope I am allowed to stay......

    Only if it's NOT a Toyota😃

    The businesses round here are using the tax break to purchase Rams or F trucks...not Toyotas...one owner said that the US offerings just have more features and usability that yotas can provide. Cept of course if you want to take them into the city😞
