babydriver Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Sometime ago some of you kind chaps & chapettes gave me a website address for a place to buy exhausts which were cheaper than kwik fit for my Xsara, now I am getting some silly prices for the Evil ones Clio auto 1.4 1996/7. Has failed mot which I knew it would for the blowing but the tester has said that the whole lot needs replacing as its too rusty????????????????????? It has a special flexi bit in the middle section which is not listed in any national/ats centre so I have been told it will be a special oreder and the middle section is over £100 alone, add to this the rear section and cat it gonna be a dear do, probably more than what the cars worth. That web site might be worth a look Thanks in advance.
trigger Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Was it these guys? http://www.bodyshopwarehouse.co.uk/category/exhausts
trigger Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Hmm... They don't list a flexi neither, Are you sure it's not been bodged before with a piece of universal flexi pipe and that it should in fact be just a normal pipe?, It's hardly a rare model.
nigel bickle Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 A new length of flexi & 2 exhaust clamps will cost you £20 from a sensible car emporia

babydriver Posted August 16, 2011 Author Posted August 16, 2011 Tiffx19 You are a star, I think for sure that is the one, All the exhaust centres could not come up with that even after 'many calls to their suppliers'. You are the winner of an autoshite sticker, when I print some more this week. Thank You.
Barry Cade Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Wahey! those years working for Kwik Fit didn't go to waste then.. A few years ago I could have given you the part number off the top of my head.. The sticker will go pride of place on the back of my wee Swift...with the blowing exhaust
