Cheers, chris
They're V6, but can be made to fit 1800 or in my case diesel.

I have a Tourer as well (V6). If these boxes will fit the Tourer, I would be very interested as well. As MarkS asked, will these fit the Tourer?

Thanks

I'm going to feed this back to the manufacturer, since it looks like there need to be one or two small improvements needed to enhance the fit and finish of the silencer.


How many members might be interested in purchasing one of these units?
The support straps appear to still be available from Rimmer Brothers, see here:

Items 11 and 12 are the correct parts and appear to be the same across all engine variants.
Hi, would these exhausts be suitable for the diesel tourer, if so when will they be available to buy, from where/how and any idea about cost, please, thank you.

The only difference between the tourer and saloon, is the length of the tailpipes, so why not message Jezzer 1 and see if there are any plans in the pipeline to offer the rear silencer in tourer format.

They are certainly going to be popular, I drove the wife's car yesterday, and it's considerably quieter than the ZT

A good quality back box is high on my list too.

I now need a back box for my ZTT

Thanks to Brian for confirming it’s just the tailpipes that differ on the Tourer.

The existing tailpipes on my back box are “pristine”

So they may have a second lease of life if I can “circumcise” them and figure out some sort of sleeve to use them to extend the shorter ones.

So yes - I will have one please !!
