Google Pendle Performance.

They will sort it and the software.

I thought the MOT included a dpf check these days and if the car was fitted with one it had to be there to pass.

Everything else aside, the MOT is/has changed I believe from just being a cursory check to see if it looks as though the dpf is present to an actual, proper check that it's there. I'm sure the dpf removal guys will still take your money so tread carefully.

It's possible to remove the matrix inside and refit the empty canister so no odd looking replacement pipe work that doesn't match.

Software needs modifying to avoid dashboard check lights ...

Pendle can do all of that.

As rickmeister mentioned, it's quite easy to cut open, remove the innards and then reweld everything back into place.

Guy in the local garage removed the DPF from his BMW in the most simplistic way, just took it off, smashed a bar through the core, shook the bits out and refitted. Looks right, no parts required, dash is lit up like a Christmas tree, but he's not too fussed, was picked up cheap as a high mileage cat D.
