Well, managed to replace the full exhaust system on the disco tonight with a nice new one. Done on the deck, no jacks used (athough I do have a 2" lift) Took 30 minutes from start to finish, including removing the tape Paddocks had stuck all over the damn thing! Threading it over the axle was surprisingly easy too.....
Total cost to me £77
Cheapest quoted price from the usual exhaust places and local garages for the full system £182, and I would have had to place a deposit because it was "non returnable once ordered" Was laughed at in one national chain who fit items quickly when I said I could get the system myself for £77.
Don't get me wrong, i wouldn't have begrudged paying upto about £100 for the fitted system to save me scrabbling about under the damn thing, but an extra £105 quid is excessive for a half hour job, thats £210 per hour labour!!!!
