Default Small world

Well what a small world it is eh? I recently picked up a quad exit exhaust from a forum member who unfortunatly didn't fit to his car, now i picked it up from the Southampton area and took it home to Devon.
I gave it a bit of a hose down on the drive and looking at the tips thought they looked very familiar. When speaking with the seller (last night as i had to pay him) he said that he picked it up at a scrappy in Northhampton, hmmm wasn't a dark blue S with heavy front end, drivers side pushed over was it? Yes it was with a cream interior.

So Mr Conan Sir i have your old soot pipes on my drive, again. Only last time they were on there they were attached to the car. I also know what they sound like already so thats a bonus

Yes I did, still have in the garage and still can't decide whether to fit it or not. The same goes for tuning bumper that I purchased, can't make my mind up. Well neither is going to happen till spring at least.
