Title: will a 1.4 99 complete exhaust fit straight onto 1.6 04 model
Post by: mj on 16 September 2013, 22:23

as above, the former owner of my car has totally bodged an aftermarket exhaust onto the car and now the whole lot including down pipe and cat needs to be replaced. I dont fancy paying £350 to replace it all but i have found a complete system only a few months old which was fitted to a 1.4 model for a fraction of the price but its nearly 200 miles away and cant afford a wasted journey.
