marcusgrant Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 225 isnt that bad is it? a scorpian backbox is about that much for a sport, cat back (middle and end) is 330 or something....thats before you've fitted them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Green Giant Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 that was with a new flexi too, which are usually £100+VAT. so...340-vat @ 17.5 = 59.50= 280.5-Flexi price @ £50 (gave me a discount on the flexi because of how much i was spending)=£230.50 (so pretty much what you were quoted)i have no doubt however that that quote would have been +VATso now with VAT @ 20%total would be about £276.60BARGAIN if you ask me!plus i needed something as my back box had fallen off!!im pretty sure just the back box and tailpipe was £170+VAT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
