how much does it cost "roughly" for a brand new exhaust (from manifold back including cat, middle box and back box) fitted on a 1.2 8v corsa?

(mine has totally split at the back of the middle box)

if this should be in help + mod advice ... sorry and ill sort it right away

cheers

Can you not get the parts from the scrap yard, then it's just the cost of fitting?

wat if it was the cat back then lads ? (its the middle box that is falling apart, the pipe itself and backbox also look dodgy, so maybe could get away without new cat)

Can't see it being more than 100 quid TBH

Get one from a scrappy and fit it yourself if it's any more

can't see why not if your paying them to do it. It's still money for them.
Ry try reading the thread first, he doesn't have the tools.

it would cost me an arm and a leg at scrappies here (you either pay them big to take a part off, or risk your life yourself under stacks of cars lol.... plus as i say i dont have tools for removing exhausts.)
