Hi all, I've been looking into purchasing a second hand C30 around the 80-95k miles mark, but the cars I've been to see both have no reference to the DPF having been changed or anything at all. I'm a bit concerned that, with the Volvo advice being that they should be changed every 75k miles, I may face an immediate bill of having to get the DPF replaced soon after purchase. The dealers don't have any more information re: the DPF so I have to assume neither have had any attention. Long story short: is this a valid concern? Is there anything I can do allay my worries? Should I pay a bit more and go for a car more around the 60k miles mark? Appreciate the advice. Ta, Ben
