Is the CAL related to our stupid Govt? DPFs, Cats etc all cause wasted fuel. How the Hell can a car that does less mpg because of this rubbish be less polluting than one that is allowed to work more efficiently and provide a sensible mpg, hence spreading any pollution over a larger area?

According to CAL, tens of thousands of motorists have already had factory-fitted diesel exhaust filters — called Diesel Particulate Filters or DPFs — disconnected, because they can clog up when used regularly in heavy traffic
Oh that's just shocking, what sort of low life scum would do that?
CAL director Simon Birkett said that vehicles that have had their filters stripped out are worsening air quality, and that if they are not subjected to existing MOT emissions tests, or even stricter ones under the EU proposals, they will go undetected.
Yes I quite agree.
Tens of thousands of UK motorists are illegally driving diesel vehicles without the filters
I know, but what are you going to do about it?
face losing their car insurance and risk being found guilty of fraud
Oh that thing :?
