Obviously impossible to know the quality, but the price is good.

I use an Eternal on mine, they are about £110 for the 3 sections... ...though their mounting kit is shite ;D

Yes I have.  ;)

I think!

EDIT

Close, I bought this one

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAUXHALL-OMEGA-B-3-0-1994-2001-Silencer-Exhaust-System-/150810088414

Need a system for my 2.5...its the same price, is it any good. Seems to me, on any exhaust system I have bought for any car, they never last much more than 3 years, wherever I get them from. £80 is better than £300 quoted at one place I looked ???

Should ask the question....how easy is it to fit, laying on your back under the car, with the rear wheels up on ramps :y

i got a new backbox for mine from work for 36 pounds which i thought was a bargain. not the best quality but it fits ok and actually gives a deeper tone which sounds nice

I've fitted one from them - but for the estate - quality seemed very good for the price, all the mounting kit was good.

Putting the new one on was much easier than getting the old one off!

Jamie said Eternal was about £110 for a side....I read this advert as £79 for both sides.....so if the quality is good, then Eternal are making a bob or two :y

Hope it fits better than the cheapy one I got before my Eternal one - no amount of friendly persuasion would get it to miss the chassis...
