Needing to replace soon on 1.8 51 plate coupe
Any recomendations?
Haven't replaced a back box in years - last time was 1997 and just went to local fast fit place. Planning on keeping this car so don't want cheap and cheerful really which is probably what I would get from national chains. Local place wanted 170 for a mild steel box!!
Have seen many advertised as 'sports' exhaust which would be fine if they didn't make such an embarising flactuant noise.
Your thoughts welcome

You could always get a stainless steel system custom made for it to your own specification.
I had one made last year for my 206 & you can have whatever tail pipe you like, a quite or loud system etc, its down to what you want & what they can design & build for you.
Speaking to the guys at the place I went & seeing what they had done & who for over the years I know im going to be very happy with the end result.

I agree with lee. Go for a stainless one made to measure. Superb, looks good, do not rot, and are not that expensive , unless like me, the cloi v6 i owned had one on, and cost a massive £1500.00. Did look good though, cheers, graham.

If it is similar to the 1.6 16v back box ie fitted with two bolts with springs on them it's nice and easy i got a walker rear silencer for less than £45.00 and fitted it in 15mins,
if you need from the front section back ie 2 piece's go for the walker good quality they make them for some dealer's, timax a bit tinny! bosal not bad, but stainless as mentioned top quality but it depends on what you want to spend??

Thanks all, just need the back box only- will start ringing round locally to see what I can get for sensible money.
