Hmm... interesting. Could be a probleme to pass the "Control technique" = MOT
Di Filippo full 3" exhaust system, they ripp my head off with that over here.

I`ve seen this advert, but I was wondering why the car was advertised a couple of month ago on pistonhead an then suddenly "sold".
Now the same Person sells it again.
Do you know anything about this one?

no sorry ..just seen it on another thread ...whats the problem with the 3in exhaust ?? if its noise wait till you hear a 500

3 inch exhausts can be quiet speak to 'ringram' on this forum he has the same exhaust but on a vxr8. Its quiet compared to a wortec exhaust with the plates removed. I doubt the 3 inch would be alot louder than a stock 500 as long as it has the centre boxes in place

I`ll talk to my mechanic tomorrow. See what he says. Police in Paris don`t even know the diffence between turbo and sc. Every loud car is suspicious.

This silver one looks much nicer than the vxr500 which was a last ditch attempt by greens to sell the last few VXRs. They weren't intercooled either.

I have a 3 inch difilippo with 1 7/8" long tube headers and it's quieter, more 'rumbly' than the Wortec I had before that gave me a headache at higher power. The difilippo is made for performance, the Wortec for noise.

The exhaust needs an "E" for Europe/Euopean to get that licensed in Paris. The Wortec propably has an "E" marked on the system?
The difilippo is made in Australia and has no "E" sign a friend just told me. Is that true?

i dont know ... but does make sence .. still would be cheaper to change that bit on the exhaurst ??

I've never seen anyone crawl underneath a car to check if it's type approved. All I will say is you are unlikely to get any trouble in the Silver car. If I hadn't already bought mine this is the one I'd have. Low mileage and nice modifications.

Don't think so. Had mine off the car and never saw it.
