Hi everyone
I can see from the search button that this topic has been covered a lot but I still see differnt outlooks on exhausts.
I don't wanna any bake bean can on the back or massive dustbin but I don't want a nice bit of sound.
Can anyone recommend an exhaust or know of any good deals new or used.
Thank you

What year is it? There were 2 different kinds of exhaust systems used on 325is.

I got quoted £1200 for a 3 piece and £600 for a 2piece, genuine BMW. Alternatively 2 piece Eberspacher from ECP is about £400...
Luckily mine just needed a bit of welding and will hopefully last another 12 months.

Well as you know, your car had an Alpina exhaust from new but if your car was a standard 325i then it would have had a two piece system being an '89 car.

Being the car this is, it has to be a genuine exhaust if the Alpina system cannot be secured.
Barry, I cannot remember but did this have the full Alpina system with the 6 branch? If so, whats it wearing now?

Just to recap.
Are there any differences between Coupe/saloon/touring/cabrio exhaust systems
Thank you

Just seems odd as the vert is longer than coupe so assumed the exhaust would be

Unsure as of make but good quality would just like something with a slightly deeper tone.
