It was a good price, quick delivery and good value. What more do you need?

as i was told by rookingham landrovers when i inquired about mine on a m plate the vehicles were type approved with out them they are not required for the mot they only fit them as a after thought for various emission laws in different areas

Mines Ex Jap - Rust free and just 48k when I got it!  :dance: :dance:

Range Rover Blues:
Just clarify something for me, some of you said you can use the Defender downpipe which has no flexi in it.  Doesn't that make the exhaust noisier? I'd assume it's there for a reason (other than inflate the price of spare parts) :?

Budgie:
The flexi is there to stop the downpipe cracking at the flange where it joins the exhaust manifold because of the vibrations of the engine. That's why you need the exaust mounting rubbers in good condition if you're fitting one, so that these take vibration out of the exhaust instead.

I didn't notice any increase in noise when I fitted mine and as the Defender downpipe is about £25, the Disco one with flexi is £70 and the one with the cat/partical filter is £225 then I'll take my chances with the cheaper one.  ;)
