Some photos for you.

63mm bore all the way through, slightly tarnished and a bit grubby because it's been underneath the car.

It's separated into two pieces, so easy to transport. This is the backbox, showing the repair I mentioned in the first post. There's a set of hangers in the bag, plus the gasket for the flange and a mount.

I will also vouch for the quality and fit of these, its awesome.

The look and sound amazing on a G40!

What's your best price on the middle and back section pal?

For the record, there's more negotiation room on the system than there is on the manifold.

I'm a realist and I accept that the repair job makes it less desirable. It also recognises that I haven't test-fitted it, following the repair. I have neither the time or tools to do so, so it's sold as seen.

To be 100% clear, I see no reason why it wouldn't fit - it's been cut off and re-welded back on, the lines in the steel match up, etc - but I can't guarantee it. The price and the negotiation room is an acknowledgement of that. If you had to bugger about with it - cut it off again and get extra metal put in - then you'll still be quids in. There's no guarantee that any second-hand custom-made system will fit straight onto your car.

I don't want to put people off, I'd just prefer for you to know what you're looking at here.

The manifold is as new, just with the typical tarnishing, hence asking about 90% of the new price. You also don't have to wait months for a group buy.

I've just checked the bracket for the backbox as it occurred to me that I wasn't using the original hangers for this system. It's been modified.

This is how it looks as standard:

One of the two hooks has been cut off, and there's a right-angled bracket which enables this to be supported by a bracket which is behind the back bumper on a Mk3 Polo. Before you write this off as a deal-breaker, go and check what condition your exhaust hangers are in. They're shit.

As this means it won't be a DIY job unless you can weld stainless, I'm open to negotiation on the system. Worst case scenario - to put the hook back on and tweak the backbox fitment (which it might not need anyway) - I can't see this costing more than about £50 to fix. But obviously I appreciate it's a ballache etc.
