Anyone got an old exhaust they would consider giving up in exchange for some beer tokens?

Think I may have a problem with the internal perforated pipes in mine, and the flexi piece is welded on badly - so could also do with replacing.

Would love an ACT system eventually of course, but a couple of unexpected engine surprises this year have ruled that out now!!

Located close to Rugby/Coventry would be a bonus!

I have a nice stainless sports exhaust that I am just about to advertise. I am not sure what make it is, but I though it was an early ACT system. The silencer box looks like the standard type rather than the cherry bomb type. Let me know if its of any interest.

Thanks all. Just trying to think of the logistics of moving one at the moment!!

I have an e-class coupe, in which the seats go down in the back. I was thinking I might just get away with wrapping the exhaust carefully with bubble wrap and cardboard (to protect the car - it's only 3 months old!). With the flex pipe bit in the passenger footwell ad the rest running through the centre of the car it might just make it?

Other than that - it might be an option to cut the rear pipes off after the silencer and join with some 2.5" joiners/clamps...feasible??? (might also make it possible to get the rear tail pipes level!!!)

Wheelcourier.com will ship it in tact for about £30.

Have you secured one yet Martin?

I'm generally about a bit locally and I'm sure I can get it in the Octavia. Had a few hundred kilos of old cast iron guttering in it so an exhaust is medical grade in comparison. As long as you're not in a massive rush for it.

Wouldn't trust a courier company if you want it in one straight piece.
