If I remove the rust will it still be a mk3?

Ba-dum tish  :grin:

To be helpful, there are loads of people selling standard silencers/exhausts for the 1.4 on ebay. Could find one in a scrappy/breakers yard too.

You might have to go custom built as the 1.4 is not really a car many people modify for performance so off the shelf exhausts are goign to be standard ones or nothing I reckon.

That said you need to look at why the first box kept cracking, it shouldn't. I suspect that you may have had the exhaust hung wrong putting stress in the system where there shouldn't be any.
