My exhaust has come off at the front. Garage say I need a new cat, linkpipe and gasket. They want £206.50 all in. Is this a good price?
Exhaust has been blowing at the front end for the past week or so.

Car is at the garage now. I can't really drive it any where with it hanging off at the front.

not a bad price, your looking at £150-£200 (depends on source) for a genuine peugeot cat converter.

But you're going to have no choice if the garage has the car already and you won't move it =/
Should ask for quotes prior to taking it and handing over the keys!

Where has it broke? If it's just snapped off the centre pipe a garage can weld it for around £30 no point forking out for a new cat if the internals still have a fair bit of life in them
