No personal experience but I have seen a TiMax truck unloading exhausts into my local Kwik Fit.  And if they're good enough for Kwik Fit...   ;)

I was aware of the eternal exhaust type but have read threads on here of sending wrong bits and not quite fitting right etc and cant be arsed with all that. I just want a good quality exhaust that'll last several years...
Anyone know if I can get one from main dealers using trade card?

The current ones from main dealers are little better than the eternals.  Which in turn are very noticibly better than the Timax/Bosal shite sold by fastfit places...
