newbie here with a question ahead of a purchase:

I love the 5.0 Autobiography as an ownership prospect and hope to buy one this month or next

However I have a personal preference (call me nuts!) for a more discreet or invisible exhaust than the straight tailpipes I've seen on most models

How easy it is to change these (or have these changed) to the setup on the V8 diesels, where the exhaust is discreet and behind the bumper?

I would have thought that a decent exhaust fabricator could do those for you easily enough. It's just the tips.

Im with the OP on this. Standard SC exhaust makes it look like a wheel barrow!

It is just the tips though, so easily sorted

Haha that's brilliant and neatly summed up exactly what I dislike about it!

Thanks both that's great news.

It might not be your cup of tea - however I always liked how Overfinch tackled the rear pipes pic here:

Failing that as everyone has said a fabricator will be able to help (or maybe look to put on pipes from a TDV8? no idea if they will fit but they are more inconspicuous.
