Hi All, I just purchased on E bay 310692493971 item.
The exhaust back box was very heavy duty, well made came with a new clamp and fitted straight onto my 2006 Td4 Facelift Freelander no problem, just thought I'd share it with You and £5 of that was postage a real bargain. Alan.

Keep the receipt. This was my £40 back box after 18 months...

If that included off road use 18 months for £24 isn't bad

I fitted a back box to the mother in law's V6, which she got off EBay for about £30. The fit was good, but it didn't even make 18 months, before I was changing it again. In my experience with exhaust, buy cheap, buy twice.

I've had good and bad experiences with cheap exhaust bits. Moms juke, new centre pipe and rear section, cheap as chips it still looked new 12 months on when she sold the car. Sister in laws old astra mk5 back box was a bag of shìt after 1 winter.

Depends if you don't mind changing the bits frequently, if cars gonna be sold on soon happy days

I was being tight as it was just after Christmas and went for a mild steel centre and tail pipe on my Disco but will be upgrading to stainless steel when this one rots out in 6 years or so.
