Just passed my Mot - 03 plate Jimny, needs whole new exhaust, I have had at least three warnings on my MOTS, but you carry on till they say, next time it's gonna fail... So, you guys, where is the best place to get a new one fitted??? Can you suggest any of the national exhaust centres that give a good fair price????

cheapest exhaust system will be ebay, cheapest way to fit it is to do it yourself. its very simple theres about 4 nuts and bolts if i remember right. any that dont come undone can be cut and replaced with new.
if you cant diy, i would phone around, and dont go to a suzuki dealership or you will have to sell your soul to pay for it.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

TBH, the best place is your own drive, having sourced the replacement parts from a motor factor or exhaust specialist.
It is an easy swap if you don't need replace the catalyst.
Otherwise, try ringing the big chains for a quote.

Boy racer style stainless exhausts are the best value for money if you're not going to be fitting it yourself because they're not much more than a standard one and generally have a limited lifetime warranty.
Throw the Cat in the bin if you like going in water and stalling it :whistle:
