Title: New exhaust for TD Estate
Post by: RonaldMcBurger on 27 July 2006, 13:16:19

I have just bought a brand new cat back complete exhaust system for my TD Estate off Ebay, with all clamps, rubber slings etc. £82!!!!!

Now, Mark will no doubt confirm that I need this yesterday, so I look forward to getting this bargain. Yeah yeah, it might only last 2 years, so what.... The car might not last that long.

It is a pig to start still so this weekend I will have another go at plumbing in new fuel return lines. Drives Ok though, until you put your foot down at 50mph then everyone behind gets a restricted view of the road and usually flash lights in support of the diesel smoke screen. Very nice of them. Hoping the new exhaust might just help here!!!!!

I have some scaffold pole if you fancy going for a less restrictive setup
