SmokeEm Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 Lets just say I wanted a stainless exhaust making from scratch for a V6 engine in a hurry. Where do I go? Is mike the pipe still going? I need someone in the south... Fast
nik_plant Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 Mike the pipe sold out to longlife, same place still doing the same stuff, just had my exhaust done there, done a good job. I had a manifold so he went back from there. Good job but be warned the bloke was a miserable git. But his work was good
SmokeEm Posted June 10, 2013 Author Report Posted June 10, 2013 Can you PM me cost etc? Thanks bud...
Fiesta Steve Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 Got mine done at powerspeed in Ashford..
Escort Mk1 4 Door Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 i have been known to make a few exhaust
SmokeEm Posted June 11, 2013 Author Report Posted June 11, 2013 Have asked Longlife Wallington for a quote
frankthefencer Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 Speak to Raz at Maidstone exhaust centre. Does a pukka job at good price . Does stainless as well.
alltheoldohyeah Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 My mate runs a little old skool ford garage in redhill and has a hydraulic pipe bender and can make just about anything you want. PM me for details.
aardvark101 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 Pipecraft at Basildon, dont know about stainless, but worth a punt
mk2 v6 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 Pipe craft for my v6 can't fault them phone dean on 01268 285535.
red1968 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 Long life pucka did a real nice job but the owner is a proper weapon
iandq Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 mike the pipe! now theres a blast from the past, old mike randall died years ago now, i went for a job there once, about 100 quid a week ! longlife's work is good ( or can be! ) but the guy there, can be a bit moody. my mate got a 3 inch dual system for his 7 litre s/c capri done there, nice job, but another mate just wanted a back box fitted but it was so bad he finished it himself in the end ! cheers, ian.

Couldnt agree more its a 50 50 split with all my mates that have used wallington longlife mine is tip top excatly what i wanted and the workmanship on the system is very good but other mates all based around wllington have had bad expearneces normaly if they havent gone for a full system but instead just a back box or de cat.
SmokeEm Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Posted June 12, 2013 Well I have their quote. Done by a guy called Dan Matthews. Not cheap but recommended by most so going to book her in..
Mrs O/H/C Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Money well spent .. Think we had ours done at Longlife about 8 years ago and not had any problems. <br />Already decided that the Anglia will be going there also
SmokeEm Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Posted June 12, 2013 Hope so Lee, gonna cost me (aka Michelle lol) £450odd for what I want so it had better last or i'm a dead man...
Mrs O/H/C Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 I can only speak on experience Dave, as said above we have had ours for a long time and personally I would not go anywhere else
2litreScapri Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Dan Matthews? Spooky, I know somebody of that name, but they live in Ascot area
frankthefencer Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Just picked up my mk1 from maidstone exhaust centre. He done a real good job in stainless and good value. Well recommended and he loves doing oldskool cars !!!
SmokeEm Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Posted June 14, 2013 Well after many recommendations, Long Life nr Wallington have been chosen. Booked in with Dan for Wednesday for design & fit. Hopefully htere is a cafe or something nearby!
Admin Vista Posted June 14, 2013 Admin Report Posted June 14, 2013 How long are you going to keep us in suspense Dave, onto what?
SmokeEm Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Posted June 14, 2013 If U did some admin digging Scott, you could find out.. Otherwise, I am hoping to make Wingspan meet Wednesday evening
