Fitted OK but you need to ensure your "new" back box is for Estate and not saloon!! HTH

I used to have the 2.5 and it came with a 3.0 back box fitted. I then changed it when it needed to be for another just the same but had to insist at the exhaust place that that was what I wanted. The rest of the system remained as 2.5 though so there are no problems you will have .
The 'benefit', if it is one is that the tone of the exhaust becomes lower and sounds better.
Thumbs Up!

Reply #6 - 24. Jul 2011 at 08:26 As people have already said above. I did buy a mini facelift with a stainless exhaust which stuck pasted the bumper. When I removed it whole, then fitted it too my facelift, it fitted perfectly. I would imagine there must be some difference perhaps in length between a mini face & facelift too.
