Aluminium Exhaust Back-Box?

just bought one of these from the same seller for £62 as well as a filter kit for £26

The company is called Parts Plaza (UK) Ltd and are very helpful on the phone and very quick delivery.

They had put a shogun oil filter in the service kit accidently and sent a bongo replacement straight away and it arrived next day

Exhaust is fine we will see how long it lasts.

i was quoted 168 quid from the local mazda main dealer for the same part so i opted for this to save some pennies

btw the back box just looks like a back box to me dont really care wot its made of as long as it gets me through the mot in february

Any guarantee? What about the MOT the February after?

1 year guarentee

suppose its not great but pretty standard as cheap exhausts go and you gets wot you pay for

having six kids ive got to keep the bongo motoring on the cheap so we can all get about

we have done a couple of mots with ours and no problem, sound nice and smooth (ill leave the noisy pipes for the chavs.......sporty pipe on a diesel bread van.....come on the nearest these vans have come to sport is being parked outside the sports centre:roll: )

too much scare mongering about basic service parts, there is not a lot in it. spend your money on good oil first....shiney bits later.

Look guys dont mess about, a fully fitted complete stainless exhaust from mainfold to tail pipe only costs £250.

Unless you enjoy crawling about under a van getting your knuckles skinned.

i do agree, assuming that you need a complete system and have 250 quid at the time. if not then the ones discussed are fine and the back box and mid section takes half an hour to change.

if its raining though......borrow the 250 quide.....

do a search using the word "stainless" and you will find a number of firms offering the pipes.
