What Pipe?

Name that exhaust and win a day at Brands BTCC

---

British exhaust manufacturer Quicksilver is sponsoring Tom Onslow-Cole’s BMW for the Brands Hatch round of the BTCC, broadcast live on ITV on Sunday the 19^th of August. 

To celebrate, PH has 2 tickets to give away, which grant entrance to the circuit along with entrance to the team’s hospitality suite for the day. 

The PHer who can correctly name the make & model of car from which each exhaust shown below belongs to gets the tickets (in the event of a tie, a winner will be drawn from those with the most correct answers). 

Most of the answers can be found by doing a little bit of homework on the quicksilver website at www.quicksilverexhausts.com

Please send you answers to [e-mail]

Fond memories of wrestling an aftermarket exhaust onto my VW camper there with number 1.

I hope the winner will be named and shamed here

[L100NYY]

Just a small point to the guys above, it's probably best not to give out your answers on here!!!

Good luck to the winner. Feeling a bit down with a cold at the moment, that's my excuse not having an idea on every exhaust. Easy job for a Kwik Fit Fitter...

1. Not sure.
2. ??? Looks like a steam train.
3. There is even some car there and I don't know.
4. Think I know. But which model, they all look the same.
5. Ahh, that jogs the memory.
6. That's number wang.
7. Got that one.
8. Crazy exhaust. All sideways. That's not number wang.
9. Ahh, old friend.
10. Great, one of the few exhaust I can idenity and there is half a car in the picture.
11. Got it.
12. Looks nice.
13. Hmmm, tricky, but I think I know.
14. Just need to pop out and check something in the car park.

That's because thicko here was trying too be too clever and used two 00's and not one 0 and one zero........

I stand corrected.

Please, take a seat.

[I want an Elise!]

Right, I have all but 3 !

I have also done zero work this afternoon.

[Pingman]

Where as i have about 3!

Absolutely no idea what some of them are, i can only think that they are bespoke race exhausts , yea, that's it!

I hope you tell us what they are when the comps over or il be extreamly frustrated lol

[I want an Elise!]

When does this comp close ? Anyone know ?

[ec523]

Man allday I have spet researching these god forsken exhausts....and I still missed out number 2 and the square one that looks lke it should have come from a porker but did not... aaarrrggghhhh.....

I realy fancied a freebie to the BTCC. Anyway it has been good fun though listening to those notes bellowing from the exhuasts.

It has made me bang my head on the wall for having a custom made quad for my e39 when I could have gone to Quicksilver.....

Ohh "ignorance sucks as* !!!

OK, so quiz to the sad ones.

Just how many man hours have been lost to the god internet, at a cost of how much to the nation's GDP for about £50 quids worth of prize?

And no, there is no prize for the correct answer.....

pat on the back for the quicksilver marketing manager

how much advertising for £50?

[Niffty951]

I cant for the life of me think what engine would fit no.4?? Its like a turbo flat 4 or something?? No. 3 looks rare too but the rest I'm happy to say I recognise. Very sad!

[Oddball RS]

EC523, you mean the square silencer one? i would guess M3

No.4 is easy to find on their website, and you'll be surprised!

For all those who entered, the correct answers L-R, top to bottom are:

Aston Martin V8 Vantage
Aston Martin V12 Vanquish & Vanquish S
Bentley Continental GT
Ferrari Enzo
Ferrari F40
