So I need a new one...mine sounds awful, and I know I need a new one I was told when I took it for a service.
I was actually thinking of a dual exhaust system of some sort, but I'm not looking for really noisy, mainly cosmetic really
Any suggestions?
I have a 2.0 HDI.

Get a nice 2.5/3inch exit with a de-cat. Nothing fancy needed on a HDi just something that looks clean.

I was told for a duel exhaust system, (tailpipe either side of bumper, not just 1 double pipe) I'm looking at over £300
Not sure I can afford that to be fair, or if it's worth it, it's a 10 year old car.

Was that fitted?
Where should I be looking, I literally have no idea where to start, apart from going into the local garage and asking, but I'm sure they would old deal in standard parts etc.
