Does the Land Rover Discovery suffer from DPF problems?

I have been worried about replacing my 2006 Land Rover Discovery 3, which I believe doesn’t have a DPF. I want to buy a newer Discovery, but am fearful that my short journey to work (four miles) will cause problems. What do you think?

Your Disco 3 2.7V6 diesel must have a DPF in order to conform to EU4. No reports of any problems here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/land-rover/discovery...d
