It will depend on length too! some companies don't like handling parcels over 2M, I've used Business Post before to send a 2.5M exhaust, i think it cost £35 ish

I've got an even better way of sending big parts now, I use 500kg fertiliser bags off the farm, tough as old nails and big, which is good cos we won't be allowed to burn them soon.

Steve, i still have that brand new OEl system here in York, but it is welded up to make 1 full system and cannot be split, it goes from downpipes backwards.

Even if it cost you £30 in postage, for £70 all in, it is still one hell of a bargain.

I don't have the system at home, it is still in the garage of another zoner so no pics i'm afraid, but you have my word it is mint.

palerider may have even seen it when he picked up his Hard top in York from a bloke called Dave.
