The big swedish front wheel drive volvos have all had stainless systems since 1992 when the 850 was launched , many many are still running around with the original .

Yeah mine was blowing like a good one had a 50p size hole in it went to volvo mania and found a replacement one but still looking for a s/s one but ain't forking out £600+ for one had it booked in to tip top exhausts in birmingham but seen some of the photo's of the welding etc so pulled out at the last minute
So unless one comes up I'm going to make one my self as I'm a pipe fitter anyway and my mate does stainless handrails I'm sure we could make a nice custom one depending how good it comes out who knows
