I had to replace the exhaust system on my own van 5 years ago and I took it to the company in the link. I would recommend them to anyone (Campershack were unknown to me at that time. ) The exhaust system is guaranteed for life and has never given me any trouble.

When I was under the van, I spotted that one of the silencer top clips was missing, and when the engine was running, the exhaust was vibrating more than it should, which probably loosened or broke the 'original' patch. So the van will have to sit still until the replacement clip comes from Brickwerks, otherwise the new patch will fall off as well.
I've had a few pointers for replacement exhausts - s/s from Brickwerks, s/s vw speedshop from Campershack, or a custom made s/s set up from ProSpeed in Cardiff. Any recommendations or suggestions on which to go with?
I quite like the £650 all-in price from Camper Shack, bearing in mind the possible problems, but they are the other side of the country from me. The Brickwerks one is a bit dearer, and I'd also have to pay someone to fit it - and then there's the likelihood of problems with the exhaust studs, etc. ProSpeed are well known round here, and I know they've built 2WD exhausts for T25s, but not sure about a Syncro. Bit of an unknown factor.

Is the £650 at Campershack including VAT or is a cash deal cheaper?
