views on Longlife SS exhaust please

ProfDave · 7th August 2012, 19:19

Following clarification on the decat legal issue I am going to get a SS system on the Connie Tourer CDTi.

I have a Longlife depot quite close and they seem helpful but also wondered what people thought.

Spoke to Wyn (Eurorover) today and he will be suggesting a company a bit further afield but still wanted to get a view as I like to do things as local as possible........

I've not heard a bad word about Longlife and I will certainly be using them myself when the time comes.Quite a few members on here have one of their systems so I'm sure they will be along shortly to recommend them.

Replied on your earlier post-if the fitters good I don't think you will get any better quality materials elsewhere. the good thing is it's made to measure

I used longlife and they did a fantastic job, took it into my local MG guy for a service and he was saying how solid the exhaust was.

I also got a Longlife cat-back done at a local place. I didn't book it in via the website though, I went to see the guys themselves and got a much better deal in person.

I have had 3 exhausts from longlife (3 different cars) all fitted in Cardiff and I would never get an exhaust from anyone else. They can obviously style the back box and sound requirements but its the quality of fitment that impressed!

I got a longlife exhaust fitted 60k miles ago. It has been great. Would definitely use them again. A good tip is to get a quote via email and if you don't get it fitted, they send you a special offer a month later with a 10% discount. It worked for me. I think it was about 295 with a life time warranty.

Hi, i just had a quote from the above for my ZTT at £370 all in for a decat, how does that compare with elsewhere?

How are these Longlife exhausts for noise? Just wondering as some stainless steel exhausts are made from thinner gauge metal and so are louder, which I wouldn't want.

Just wondering as I will probably need a new exhaust next year.
