Yes,until the MOT man sees it...

I always used to do that.
Had the inspector complained a self tapping screw and a washer would have sorted it.
However, since the removal of lead from petrol my muffler seems to last forever, apart from the occasional bit of road rash....

Tim, I had an A series exhaust made by Philbrad in Tamworth a while ago. You could try them but they may need your car to bespoke manufacture and fit the exhaust.

Thanks chaps. I’m not in need of an exhaust system right now, just anticipating for the future.

Meanwhile, I shall do all I can to keep my current MS system going!
