Have just left Rosie at the Long Life dealer Fastfit Service Centre in Basingstoke. Had a long chat with them and have decided on "mid sport" which is kind of the middle level of noise.
Has to be said they were really good when looking at the car and discussing options. Had a choice of six different tail tips, ranging from something would have looked OEM sized to big and gnarly! I'll post pictures of which ones I've chosen later.
In their credit they offered a cheaper alternative to fix the flange between the cats and back section. I've mentally spent the money now, so I told him to go ahead before he changed my mind for me!
When I was on the ramp I got a better look and found that both bolts had let go on the right hand pipe. The first because the flange had let go completely, and the second one likely due to the stress of being the only one left in the relationship.
Car sounded like a race car for most of the South Downs cruise, popping and snarling like mad. Sounded really good. Short video from this mornings drive to the exhaust centre... (A lot of the clattering sounds were from the roadworks I was driving through)
