Re: stainless exhaust for trekking
Took the Sisley in today as the tailpipe has gone and was quoted £180 for the full system from downpipe back, in stainless. So it's either £180 for a full stainless custom system with straight through back box and it'll sound like a racecar. or £35+vat from TMS for a replacement. I'm really undecided going by the ammount I have spent on all the cars over the last 8 mths, but think the stainless will be fun
Cheers Allen

Well the BM and Bark have 'em so why not the Panda? What sort of diameter pipework are we talking? You may, after all, not like the sound, and a £180 exhaust would be costly to replace if it ever got damaged... If it was me I'd get the standard backbox and spend the rest on fun stuff.
Get the TMS one why draw attention to you car plenty of others driving round with back boxes bigger than the car's they are driving. Please don't even think of window tint's get the money out of your deep pocket's and buy a true Fiat box that will last and sound super.

Please don't even think of window tint's get the money out of your deep pocket's and buy a true Fiat box that will last and sound super.Just for your information I did get s exhaust system for the trekking cost about 300 Euro's + 19% tax and that was with trade taken off oh and the clock was 120 Euro's + tax so don't kid your self that you are the only one shelling out loads of coin. I used do rabbit's in for £3.00 a head from the local game butcher. I think I'm going to have to look at bigger game soon to keep costs down :idea: pigs or stray cow my be just a thought.
It wouldn't be large diameter pipe probably 1" compared to the current 3/4" front to back but the silencer doesn't have baffles for the emissions to struggle through, the baffles are built into the side so is a straight through system & gauranteed for life of the car.
I certainly wouldn't pimp it up, I like original and appart from the alloys head unit and central guages you wouldn't notice.

I could live with that. The Trekking is only getting the standard dash top gauges although I do like gauges I mounted three onto of the dash on my red 4x4 panda that I still need to sell, at the time I could not find a 4 pod like I mounted on my old Ford Anglia now that was a nice car all those years ago that had seven gauges incl.the clock
Hi Alan when my son next comes to see me I'll down load some pics of the gauges on the dash it took alot of thought on how to fit them etc.
Allen decided to just go for the standard exhaust for now, which I've ordered for £28 inc vat, we shall see if it's the correct one at that price.
It was the wrong one the TW*T's, and here was me ready with the cold weather gear ready to fit it
Get the proper one on Thursday at £35.04
