Just a thought for Bob to look at the custom made option as oppose to a mainstream set up. Rebel Powerpipes are well regarded here but you can have silent if you like.
    Sure there's a place near him that may be worth a look. :y

If you want a s/s exhaust for your peachy Mig Bob I suggest you ask about for independent places in your area. Up here it's rebel powerpipes but you will have an equivalent near you. You do'nt have to de cat or be as loud as mine if you don't want to. The idea is they custom make a system to your personal taste so you can keep it quiet as standard, & choose your tailpipe exit etc.
    Mine was £340 which sounds alot but it's a lifetime guarantee, any squeaks/blows/rattles are sorted f.o.c. & you get a little service book to take in for a free check over & stamp every year. How much does a full V6 system cost from Kwikfit etc. & how long will it last? 2 or 3 yrs time you will be buying another. :y

Thanks Guy, I may well try a local independent supplier
as I'm a bit dubious about buying from abroad especially if there's a problem with it. I had a PM from Robbo299 who gave me the name of a place in Surrey, so I'll probably get them to give me a quote. :y

S/S exhausts make sence if you intend keeping the car.

When I bought my 1st Omega I saw a complete system on Ebay inc the cats for £100 and it was local so I bought it.  had Miggys now for 3 years and still not used the spare exhaust.  (will be going on for the next MOT (parts of at least))

But if the Elite needed an exhaust I whink Stainless would be the 1st consideration.

As said, a good independant will custom make for you whether you want a hooligan system or quiet as standard...are'nt all the best things in life tailor made?
   I can just hear Bob's baby sounding as cool as it looks!!! :P 8-)
