once again chaps and chapettes i'm in need of some nova-dvice !

the above link is for an exhaust system and wondered if it would fit my 1989 1.2L nova saloon (mk 1) ??

any help of previous experience with these exhaust systems would be great.

and rep given of course!

The backbox would finish about a foot short of the back valance, so would Need to get it cut legthened and re-welded to make the toxic fumes exit at the back of the car, rather than underneath, would fail an MOT if you didnt and be highly dangerous

As for the bore of the exhaust, someone else will have to help me on that one :thumb:

exhaust developed a major blow on the motorway, from what i can see its right in the middle of the centre section bout the size of a 20p.

pretty rusty just hope a bit of exhaust wrap will do !

off to halfrauds i go!

It will fit with a 1.3-1.4 twin pipe manifold.

had it up on the ramps, middle section/downpipe is swiss cheese. never seen one that bad holes everywhere and even cracks. around the backbox is bad too.

decided on complete replacment with a standard system which was to my surprise £70 all in !!
