Sorted!
Very generous guy called 'Cliffo B' from Leeds on here offered a hardly used (4/5 months, GM stickers still visible), for a 3/3.2 litre system for the cats back for a nominal charge - he even delivered and threw in some putty and a bunch of new clamps!

Naturally, 3 of the 4 bolts on the two flanges at the cat pipe union sheared and I went through half a dozen drill bits, but the system is on and very quiet - just what I wanted, so I'm a very happy bunny! :) :) :)
Well, it is Easter.................

Oh, the twin tail pipes have nice chrome trims on them too, and sit perfectly on the estate - pics when cleaned up! 8-)

Thanks Cliff - hope to be able to return the favour one day! :y

Cheers Baron!

Eternal kept whining that the didn't do an exhaust for my car, so I said I'd have a pair of centre boxes for a 2.5, but then they wouldn't allow me to collect, was I sure a 2.5 would fit..............  so when Cliff offered me this one, I bit his arm off! :y
