An exhaust system for an internal combustion engine has a catalyzed ceramic wall flow particulate filter coated with a washcoat composition. The washcoat composition includes an oxidation catalyst of at least one platinum group metal and a NOx absorbent. The washcoat composition has a D50 of less than or equal to 8 μm. The NOx absorbent absorbs NOx contained in an exhaust gas when the composition of the exhaust gas is lambda >1, and releases the NOx absorbed in the NOx absorbent when the exhaust gas composition is 1≧lambda. The exhaust system has a platinum group metal catalyst upstream of the filter for oxidizing NO to NO2 at least when the composition of the exhaust gas is lambda >1. The uncoated portions of the ceramic wall flow particulate filter have a porosity of >40% and a mean pore size of 8-25 μm.

What is claimed is: 1. An exhaust system for an internal combustion engine, which system comprising: a catalysed ceramic wall flow particulate filter coated throughout with a washcoat composition, the washcoat composition comprising an oxidation catalyst comprising a platinum group metal selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, and a mixture thereof, and a NOx absorbent comprising a metal selected from the group consisting of an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, a rare earth metal, and a mixture thereof for absorbing NOx contained in an exhaust gas when the composition of the exhaust gas is lambda>1, and for releasing the NOx absorbed in the NOx absorbent when the exhaust gas composition is 1≧lambda; and a platinum group metal catalyst coated onto a substrate upstream of the ceramic wall flow particulate filter for oxidising NO to NO2 at least when the composition of the exhaust gas is lambda>1, wherein the uncoated ceramic wall flow particulate filter has a porosity of >40% and a mean pore size of 8-25 μm and the washcoat composition has a D50 less than or equal to 8 μm. 2. An exhaust system according to claim 1, wherein the porosity of the uncoated filter is from 42-60%. 3. An exhaust system according to claim 1, wherein the mean pore size of the uncoated filter is from 11-22 μm. 4. An exhaust system according to claim 1, wherein the platinum group metal in the platinum group metal catalyst is platinum and palladium. 5. An exhaust system according to claim 1, wherein the washcoat composition further comprises an alumina support. 6. An exhaust system according to claim 1, wherein the washcoat composition further comprises a support of a mixed metal oxide or a composite metal oxide comprising two or more metals selected from the group consisting of aluminium, silicon, chromium, zirconium, titanium and cerium. 7. An exhaust system according to claim 1, wherein the ceramic wall flow particulate filter further comprises rhodium. 8. An exhaust system according to claim 4, wherein the ceramic wall flow particulate filter has exit channels and the rhodium is coated on the exit channels. 9. An internal combustion engine including an exhaust system according to claim 1. 10. An engine according to claim 9, wherein the engine is a diesel engine. 11. An engine according to claim 10, wherein the diesel engine is a heavy duty diesel engine. 12. A vehicle including an internal combustion engine according to claim 9. 13. A method of treating an exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine, which method comprising the steps of: oxidising NO in the exhaust gas to NO2 at least when the composition of the exhaust gas is lambda>1; downstream of the oxidizing step, trapping particulate on a ceramic wall flow filter having a porosity of >40% and a mean pore size of 8-25 μm and coated throughout with a catalytic washcoat composition having a D50 less than or equal to 8 μm, the washcoat composition comprising: (i) a NOx absorbent and (ii) an oxidation catalyst comprising a platinum group metal selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, and a mixture thereof; when the composition of the exhaust gas is lambda>1, oxidising NO to NO2 on the filter and absorbing the NO2 in the NO absorbent, or when the exhaust gas composition is 1≧lambda, releasing the absorbed NOx as NO2; and combusting particulate trapped on the filter in the presence of NO2. 14. A method according to claim 13, wherein the porosity of the filter is from 42-60%. 15. A method according to claim 13, wherein the mean pore size of the filter is from 11-22 μm. 16. A method according to claim 13, wherein the step of combusting particulate is done at exhaust gas temperatures of up to 400° C. 17. A method according to claim 13, wherein the platinum group metal in the platinum group metal catalyst is platinum and palladium. 18. A method according to claim 13, wherein the NOx absorbent comprises a metal selected from the group consisting of an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, a rare earth metal, and a mixture thereof. 19. method according to claim 13, wherein the washcoat composition further comprises rhodium. 20. A method according to claim 19, wherein the wall flow filter has exit channels and the exhaust gas contacts the rhodium in the exit channels of the filter.
