Exhaust pip longevity?
I don't remember anyone discussing that their exhaust pipe has developed a hole/needs replacing. I know there are a brave few who've had de-CAT pipes though so they won't know the strength of the OEM kit.

I have a May '07 (one of the very first) Pumas. At just shy of 5 years old, i can hear a throaty rumble at low revs in 1st and 2nd and it sounds like exaggerated exhaust noise. Views?

I have a 2002 Td5 SW that has all it's service history(ex police motor) and it's never had any replaced, I've just put a mid box replacement on and the box I took off seems quite servicable, it was just the bolts/studs that took some getting undone, hacksaw in the finish Rolling Eyes

For what it is worth, my 2002 TD5 Disco 2 has done just over 200k miles and is still on the original exhaust with (as far as I am aware) no problems.

My 2007 Puma 110 has done just under 100k miles and is also all original in the exhaust department.

I had to fit a new rear section to mine about a year back. Bought a cheapo pattern one from all makes and I'll be surprised if I get another six months from it. Rhubarb and custard let fly with their secret weapon.
