Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone was interested in buying a 2002-2003 cooper s magnaflow exhaust from me because i bought it and now the insurance has only gone and pretty much doubled the premium

when i told them i was going to put it on so.
Its a brand new magnafow exhaust not even taken out of the box! So if any of you guys are interested in one for £450 then PM me and just so you guys know, if you go to the shops to get one like i did, then they will charge you about £600 for a brand new one

(e.g europerformance.co.uk)

Magnaflow / Cat Back Systems / BMW (Mini) Mini / Euro Performance Car Parts

So if anyones interested, PM me your contact details and I will get back to you.
Thanks

Matt

(My favourite)

This exhaust also improves bhp and torque aswell and if you guys were wondering what the figures were i pulled them from the magnaflow homepage and the results from the dyno are there as well.

You really need to change insurance companys.

My 2003 UK STI Subaru had a , full exhaust system, sports cats, remap etc and lowered springs and the premium stayed the same(.265bhp to 340bhp)

Are you kidding me? i added a pipercross air induction kit (not the viper) and they wanted and extra £50 although i am 17 im on about £3500 right now and i told the insurance about the new exhaust and they jacked it up to £4750 for an exhaust!!

i dont know how the UK insurance system works, but here in australia if i had my insurance in my name since i am 19, it would cost me $4250/year, instead i put the in my mothers name (shes 50) with me as a Co-driver, it then went down to $520 a year!. have a look around im sure you can do better.

yeh we got the same option here to do the same but it means that it puts my mums like 15yr no claim bonus at risk

and also that i dont get my own because it would be my mums policy
