All is done  :)

Garage did a great job and MOT.  I now have 13 months MOT  :y

New ETS Exhaust good fit as well.  Two of the bolts at front were bastards, so I am glad I didn't tackle it.  ;D.  All rubbers were fine so left me the ETS set still in the bag for me  :o and they disposed of the old exhaust for me - all for £15 fitting  :D

She sounds pretty good as well.  A little raspy which I understand will sort itself out as a bit of soot beds into exhaust  :y but she does has a nice growl again from what I remember of the original GM Exhaust when new.  The Replacement GM one I had fitted a few years ago did soften the Growl but its back with the ETS system now so I am happy  :)

13 Months MOT and a V6 Growl  :D :D :D :D

I'm still waiting for mine to quieten down as the soot/muck builds up as the noise is really annoying.

:y
Mine only does about 1000 miles a year ( this year MOT annual mileage was 800 miles  :D) so mine may take a while  :y

Hopefully she will get there, and maintain the V6 growl I now have back after it was lost for a few years with I think the 2nd GM Stealer exhaust  ;)

No complaints with the ATS one, and 3.0 one fitted my 2.5 like a charm  :y

Same here if I could have found some to do the job cheap it would have saved me the hassle of doing the pig of a job.
