The garage tried to patch it up for us but it hasn’t taken and the car sounds like a tractor when you’re driving around. Unfortunately the pipe is mainly made of rust so there’s nothing to weld to either.

I can’t believe how difficult it is to get hold of parts for this car considering I can get any part for my Triumph or Trabant within 24-72hrs. The search continues for the correct part.

I’m thinking we’ll just have to get something fabricated using what’s left of the old one as a pattern.
What year and engine is your car?
