Hi,
I've recently bought a 1.3multijet punto and I can see on the old advisories that for the last 3 years it has said "rear exhaust box badly corroded, outer skin falling away"
It then quotes £297.44 for the repair. This seems excessive. I've looked around and can see that back boxes for 1.2 puntos cost about £78 before fitting.
Is this a special box that costs £200+ or is this just Nationwide autocentres taking the old owner for a mug?
I'd quite like to have it repaired for piece of mind the car's done less than 45k and is on a 53 plate it's the mk2b/3 type.
Just looking for advise, many thanks
