Diesel Tourer Exhaust
Does anyone have any recommendations for a replacement rear silencer for a 2003 R75 Tourer CDT? There are plenty on ebay, and eurocarparts for example, but are they any good?

Wanted to replace mine a couple of years ago, same dilema. After much searching I decided on a Longlife Stainless steel exhaust ,fitted, was around the same price as a decent standard exhaust.

A word of warning!
I had a Longlife fitted about 3 years ago, it looks great BUT it is very boomy & not at all suitable to the 75, meaning I hate revving the motor above 3k revs, so unable to use the car's performance...... |

I bought one from Eurocarparts before the MOT test. It was cheap (with discount code) and perfect fit.
The quality is not the best, but great for the price(~£50) |

Replacement exhaust
Jules advised me to look at Long Life Exhausts who will manufacture a replacement. If you go down this route please tell me how you get on, because my 2002 tourer is still on its original and I wonder just how much longer it can go on for!

Try finding one with a band around it, rather than the welded on support brackets. I used a 2.5 one and it is working really well.
