I noticed the exhaust had a slight blow,so,get under to have a look and a poke around with a sharp implement,as you do,and finished up with a downpipe like a swiss cheese.Rang the breakers yard and the man said 243 quid,no way you must be having a laugh,got them on ebay for 50.So,ordered them of a firm in leeds and 10 days later they arrived from poland.Marvellous,all bright and shiny but,for a left hand drive model.
the holes are now bunged up with liquid weld (10 quid ) and sounds fine

these look just right.staggered pipes for a right hand drive,and no cat converter.
i now know the side by side downpipes are for left hand drive cars and the one behind the other are for right hand drive cars.ebay only seems to sell the left hand drive ones,so if you are thinking of ordering check first.
72 and still learning
