Evening everyone. Hope this question is in the correct forum, if not apologies (I'm still a newbie)

I'm aware I'm going to need some new exhaust section/sections on the 325i touring iv just bought. A quick look on the internet throws up all sort of after market pipes that I'm not wanting on this car. Is the standard stuff easily available at the local/national exhaust places or is this something that I'm going to have to source. Anybody have any recent experience?

Cheers

J

I would recommend Cotswolds too.

I sometimes go on https://www.bmwautoparts.net/en too just to get a rough idea of price.

They helped me out with part numbers for my exhaust system which were not evident on realoem or anywhere else....good place to start.

Yeah thanks chaps. My first port of call for everything has been Sytner in Sheffield, during the restoration of the M3 a lot has been spent there so they've always been quiet good with the discounts, but as the touring in now starting to rack up the £££ I was wondering if there was any other options out there!, I thought not 😁
