Literally got home tonight from a 20 min drive.

Pulled up at home and though exhaust was blowing, so went to put it in reverse and go out with the windows down and all i heard was "cluck" and "BOOOOOOOOREEEEEE".

I was like awwww man!

So looked under the car and from the flange that the flexi joint on its snapped.

This quick paint drawing hopefully makes it more clear.

Will there be away way a garage could fix it on the cheap until i order a new exhaust.

VTR mk2 By the way

i doubt it mate because it need to join to the front manifold and there would be no way the could do this, go to an exhaust place see if they have any encond hand pipes and bodge it ?
