The exhaust in the old girl is all original and was ok if not a little tired round the edges.
After a blast full bore down a local dual carriageway I pulled off the slip road and my word there was a sudden change.
Gone was the normal exhaust note and replaced to what sounded like Thor gargling TCP from the middle of the car.
Had a look under the car and nothing blown, fallen off or split under there.
Not sure if a cat has gone or some baffles have failed but it now just sounds like I have a rather nice sports exhaust on there!
I may keep it that way for a while
