    i would hazzard a guess its something knocked up by Powerflow or similar, seems quite bespoke

    While we're on the topic...

    Is it an MOT failure if your diesel's tailpipes aren't facing downwards?

    no, fairly irrelevant which way it points
    most modern diesels std exhausts do this anyway, e.g. golf, pug.

    concerning the thread exhaust, while it looks bespoke, it certainly not rocket science, i.e. ANY exhaust fabricator can make those tailpipes up

    why is you think 'exhausts uk' are the only person making those tailpipes

    do you think they have a patent or something!:lol:

    becuase they will have the design, looks as if they did a good job and dont want powerflow monkeys touching my car again? is that satisfactory enough for you?? nothing positive to say, then go away....

    im not sure if the message is getting through!!

    THAT DESIGN IS NOT PARTICULAR TO EXHAUSTS UK!!!.....any exhaust fabricator can source them - its a generic piece of chromed metal from a wholesalers no doubt

    it would also be unfair to consider all other retail outlets 'monkeys' just because you've had a bad experience.

    at the end of the day, if you want to deal with an outlet in Sheffield, thats your prerogative. Myself, id rather give the business to someone local.

    and whos not being positive?[:s] , reference to me? If so, then you've jumped the gun a tad.

    all the posts on this thread are either informative or inquisitive with a means to being informative (exception being the tease about the wheel name)

    yer cheers nice one buddy love you...

    I KNOW IT IS NOT PARTICULAR TO JUST EXHAUSTS UK I WAS SAYING I WANTED THE DESIGN!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ARE YOU THE ONLY ONE ON HERE THAT IS NOT CAPABLE OF ANSWERING A QUESTION WITHOUT A SMIRKY REMARK?

    this is supposed to be an enthusiast site where we can give advice and help others, instead its somewhere that if you ask a simple question you get treated like a spastic. think i'll stick to ukmkivs in future, they seem a nice bunch on there and genuine.
