Im sure Danage took his rear box out on a 175 = Jet fighter !! Or you could be just silly (like me) and have no silencers what so ever ;)

Mines only a tractor if you've got your head infront of the bonnet when its idling, which wouldn't matter much as thats not where you sit when you're driving past everyone :D

No back box in and custom pipes makes it sound like a fighter jet though. Very loud though, people can hear you coming from streets away if you are moving quickly.

When I've been on a nice drive and its warmed up (HOT) then the exhaust goes nice and deep and burbles well :o

I'm sure people that have heard it are better to comment though as they are the ones that would of heard it from outside. :D

The best thing about the dCI 175 is that inside the cabin they seem to be a lot quieter than the petrol. Makes long drives quite bearable I can imagine

I have sound proofing in the boot of the car and a full speaker system, and I can still hear the exhaust nicely :D

diesels do not have emissions test, only smoke testing...hence you could possibly pass without the dpf, im sacking mine for a custom decat pipe and system. However diesels require a diff. bore to petrols.
