Sorry for the cross post, but as this is time limited, want an audience quickly before the offer is gone.

Its Genuine Exhaust back boxes for Diesel estates at a very cheap price.

If Eternal, beware, the mountings on mine (MFL TD Estate) were displaced sufficiently to make it impossible to fit without serious work to re-position them. Even then it did not fit well.

That's strange, the one I got for Mrs VXL V6's estate (2.2DTi) was a perfect fit with no adjustment required.

For that money, I think I'd be taking a punt regardless. PFL V6 exhaust works OK on a  Facelift so maybe the tractor one will too? If not, you haven't lost much.

I guess the only difference is tail pipe length, but dont know for sure.

These are from a VX dealer having a clear out, so should be 'old quality' items.

Need to know over the weekend if anyone wants one.

Is it too late for me to have one? Although mine's a PFL 97 it should be OK I think.

Postage to Scotland please?
Do you want details by PM?

apologies...I had been banned so could not receive messages.

Also, I was unaware you were outside the UK, so the postage cost is wrong.

Please send me an address, and I will get a realistic quote.  Thanks
