Guys, been offered a good genuine full exhaust from a 3 door cabby, will it fit the touring?? Mine s a 2.0i 6 pot, the exhaust in question is a 2.5i but from a 3 door, will it fit in length??

If its the full exhaust it will be the right length for the car as you can interchange between saloon, touring & convertible for the same engine type.
The difficulty you may have is that the exhaust manifold for the 2.0 engine is different to the 2.5 - and there are 2 different manifolds for the 2.5 depending on what year car is that it came off.
facelift 2.5's generally have 2 piece systems whereas the earlier cars tend to have 3 piece systems.

Facinating,please post photo's of these most unusual E30's!thebloosman wrote: 3 door cabby...... a 3 door
Do they have two doors on one side and one on the other?
Check your exhaust manifold at the downpipe fitting,some have three bolts and some have four,then make the same check on the system you are looking at.
