depends wat u go for tailpipe wise, and if u want stainless that rots in a year or real stainles.
If you want a decent system its gonna be £300+ but yes you can get them around the £200 mark.

A catback system on a 1.2 8v is not a very large system. To be honest if you were going to pay £250 for the exhaust you need your head examaning, the part you will be getting is only about half the length of the system and then a backbox.

Also, there aint no point getting aystem on a 1.2 8v, it wont increas the performance, just get a back box for looks.

No it will sound raspy if you get a center section with no silencer and basically the same with a silencer. The 1.2 8v engine does not do sounding loud very well. My backbox makes it sounds deep and quite at idle and stock loudness and deep when driving, it's good. Honestly, you don't want the lodest exhaust in the world ever, it really is silly.

But you wanted a catback, at least then your car would be roadworthy.

Do you want a decent website that sells backboxes, or a decent backbox that is sold on a website?
Why don't you just buy a copy of Revs or Redline and look in the adverts?
I can't believe you could be registered on here for over 3 years and you're asking stupid questions about where to buy an exhaust from.
If you want a price on a custom exhaust, contact the people that MAKE the custom exhaust FFS.
Why are you people so stupid?

Purhaps I have had no need for a new exhaust until now ffs people are so unhelpful.
This is the help section I need a site that sells backbox's so I come and ask people that know.
Whats the point in searching through magazines etc when I can ask a question, as many people have done this.
So in other words SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU TWAT
