dr_mat 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Full exhaust system from VW would be 300+VAT centre+rear, 80+VAT front section, 380+VAT catalyst, 300+VAT downpipes, which is I believe around £1245... But I'll watch the video clip before I make any more comments.. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60Dan 0 Posted February 3, 2005 bet that was gutting to find it had done more miles than the speedo said. How did the RAC guy find that out? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted February 3, 2005 How did the RAC guy find that out? I also loved the way he stuck his nose under the bonnet and said it needed a headgasket! - I bet it did... God knows how muh the poor bloke spent getting that stuff sorted! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted February 3, 2005 I'm always dubious about car inspectors who say that the car has more miles on it than the speedo reads... Unless there's an obvious discrepency on the MOTs then there's no way to tell how many miles a car has, or has not done... Take J-DUB for example, most people who saw her at shows in 2004 thought that the 130K on the clock was about right... the fact she had 250+K miles on her shocked quite a few people (including myself! :roll: ) At the end of the day, they are there on behalf of the buyer and are gonna advise not buying any car they have even a slight disliking of so that they don't get sued if they've missed anything... :| Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
