Astra exhaust gone
terry paget:
Astra H 2008 petrol manual
Daughter in London rings up concerned about 'new noise'. Quickfit tells her it is blowing exhaust, quotes £440 to replace. That sounds hot to me, is that reasonable?
STEMO:
£440 might be ok for a full front to back exhaust, but does she really need that?
Doctor Gollum:
An Omega exhaust costs about £250 fitted. You do the maths...
Joking aside, National Tyre may be a better bet than Kwikfit, and it could be a good life lesson for her to shop around and get it fixed ;)

you think that after 12 years, only one section of the exhaust will have rotted?

I think that Kwik fit are a bunch of cowboys and would replace it whether it was needed or not.
