Re: Exhaust replacement
The main argument against re-fitting a standard exhaust is the sheer size and weight of the thing.

damn thing is like a missile when it drops off) ..... Insurance co's seem to have the "boy racer" attitude to anything that is non standard and to be honest, when they see the Bongo, they know that it isn't going to set the tarmac alight.... common sense usuallt prevails....Conversant with Bongo Top Pinion Oil Seals
