Sorry - a little off topic I know but I thought I would share it anyway!
Was looking at getting a new exhaust sytem for my 1991 3.9 V8 Range Rover Vogue SE Auto.
Got what I thought was a fair price for the whole system - downpipes to rear box with all fittings from a friend at cost to him - circa £170.
Phoned up my local kwik fit, and was amazed to be quoted £110.80. I had to check a few times that this was correct and for the whole sytem etc.
Yep.
How much for fitting?
That's fitted was his reply!
Is that plus VAT I asked.
No, that's all in!
Got the old man to take it down today whilst I was at work and I am amazed. Where else can you buy a complete, fully fitted brand new exhaust for £110.80. If you are not aware, this is not a little exhaust for a mini etc, it has 5 pieces to it including 2x 4-2-1 sections, a Y piece, a couple of silencers etc and is a large bore compared to most cars! It even included new clamps, rubbers, disposal of the old stuff etc!
Apparently , they have 60% off certain exhausts at the moment! I mentioned this first before I asked about the price of mine! I know this will probably not interest everybody, but it might help someone!
Well chuffed and I thought I would spread the word!
Can't think of a better time to buy one! :bannana:
