My Powerflow exhaust, I'll let you judge for yourselves! Exhaust was fitted by Top Gear in Burnley, the following pics show the condition of the exhaust after just 9 months, a full refund was refused on the basis that "that stainless steel is supposed to rust like that"

Top Gear in Aylesbury are very good, I've just used them for my stainless exhaust on the Astra.
Got the same tailpipes as Dan.T has.

myt cat back system is from probably the nearest powerflow to Reigate. seemed like a pretty good job, can't remember how old it is.
i had a 2l maniflod joined to the existing system for £80 by Top Gear in aylesbury. I was pretty impressed with them.
since then the baffles came loose in th emid box. took it back to Aylesbury who incidentally didn't do the main system who repaired it under warranty.
nice blokes in there, and good service.
it's now rattling against something, so i've got to take it back again, but want it quieter anyway, so theyt'll probably adjust it while they change the silencers.

Actually, they quoted "sea air" as being a factor in the exhaust rotting so quickly......funny how grade-304 stainless steel doesn't do that anywhere near as easily, but the worse-quality stainless steel (409) that Powerflow use as a default does. It only took 9 months to get like that...
