Default Exhaust - 1997 V70

The center section on my V70 estate has completely rusted, just from the cat back, resulting in the car currently sounds like a Maxpower Citroen Saxo!

Any help on sourcing a replacement would be appreciated.

no to hand. not sure itll even fit with yours being NA. I kept it purely for the ball joint section incase I modified anybodys exhaust, so its still good metal. Ill keep it if youd rather a new rear section

These days theres 3 options
1 - genuine Volvo if you can find it. £££
2- chinese tat from motor factor or tyre/exh fitters, all the same
3 - get one made in stainless. IF you can find a local tradesman it wont be all that dear.

Johno, you have a PM.

This came off a 2.5 non-turbo V70 I broke last year, it was a 1997 car, and had been fitted shortly before my friend sold it to me to break.

Thanks for that mate, actually ordered one from eBay a few weeks ago for 50 quid and miraculously it fits!
