MoT failure to have a leaking exhaust. How loud is it?
You can buy bits on ebay pretty cheap normally. If you are prepared to fit yourself it shouldn't cost much, but exhausts can be horrid to mess about with.

How likely is that? There aren't many things to catch fire under.
Just a bit of rattling noise of the pipes at a certain rpm, not the exhaust itself. The MOT luckily isn't til late autumn so there's time to fix it.

Plastic fuel pipes.
This is very good value for a stainless steel exhaust system. Unfortunately they don't do a stainless front box so I had to get a regular mild steel one.

Exhaust gasses coming into the cab and the fact it's broken!!! That should be enough to replace it really.

I think he means just the baflles have failed?

Look at the photo, the pipe is completely severed.

Squinting on my phone. Zoomed in ... My word. That's a goner.
There seems to be a conversion done by a previous owner, the wide part that was supposed to be a silencer was replaced with a regular pipe and it looks usable still. Seems to be attached with bolts. I'm wondering if it's possible to get just the curved broken pipe to replace?

If you were in France, a non conforming exhaust would be an MOT test failure.

Perhaps you could visit a custom exhaust builder, like Powerflow, and get a stainless system fitted. You can tell them the noise level, eg “mild sporty” or “quiet”, and choose from a selection of tailpipes. I have used them in the past, they are really good.
The car is registered in Estonia, has never failed a MOT with its exhaust setup. Then again Estonia has many cool laws, you can do almost anything to your car and there is no car tax

No car tax here either but the MOT is a bit harsh.The car is registered in Estonia, has never failed a MOT with its exhaust setup. Then again Estonia has many cool laws, you can do almost anything to your car and there is no car tax

It’s broken so you should fix it.
That’s not your car, you are just looking after it for the next generation.

There, corrected that for youIt’s broken so you should fix it.
That’s not your car, you are just looking after it for the next generation who will not be able to use it unless it's converted to electric
