2 sections as standard; long section with flexi at front from manicat to rear axle, then rear box which has bends that go over the axle.

Buy the replacement from here if I was you https://www.shop4parts.co.uk/?name=store&op=partfinder&Manufacturer=2&items=Fiat_Parts
I tried 2 aftermarket exhausts and they kept banging on the body underneath, new genuine one and worked first time, plus the clamp is welded on for good fit

£214+vat for centre section, and £187+vat for the back box, and that's their special low price.
The centre just looks like a staight pipe with a kink at the end!
2, I used two different makes was really cheap ( something like £45 centre and £50 rear box delivered) pain to fit but once on no issues

I'm going to need one before long and am tempted by stainless for £250 all in.
Trouble is it's a 'sports system' and I don't want to sound like one of the Herberts on the local ring road...
I fitted a cheap rear box to a friend's Ka some years back and it banged against the body as Danoid says. So it does appear careful fitment is key.

Oh yes took me about 4 goes to get it right, one issue is the joint between the back box allows a lot of movement in/out changing the overall shape.
Ask a bespoke stainless maker and say you want a "normal" sounding system though it will sound more raspy
That’s more than what I paid not long ago from there, but all part of the fake inflation prices we’re seeing everywhere with everyone jumping on the band wagon to charge more
It is at least genuine, I think Fiat asked for £400 something but I got it there for £103
