Grimmy,

Unfortunately I'm not north of the border so can't actually help you there... however I can tell you that the MK1 and MK2, Saloon and Hatch Mid sections are identical :)

Not sure if that helps you? but it may open your options up a bit...

For a stainless i don't think its that bad, ebay lists this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MG-ZS-HATCHBACK-INTERMEDIATE-EXHAUST-STAINLESS-STEEL-/390105891871?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5ad41f841f

But I can't remember if the internal diameter is correct for a 180...

If you are just after a cheap fix though, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Klarius-Exhaust-Centre-Box-for-Rover-45-MG-ZS-/300717698983?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AMG+ZS&hash=item46042befa7 is listed for all ZS's and is quite competitively priced, but is not stainless.

A few options anyway :) (For reference the Janspeed mid pipe is £ 138.18 (inc. VAT) http://www.ptp-ltd.co.uk/shop/227_55/1/intermediate_pipe_-_janspeed.htm?)

Thats kinda always been my plan Gary and this is the last part really it has stainless decat and backbox so this would pretty much be the last part besides manis.

Grimmy, not exhaust related but do you use tapatalk on your phone? Since using it, I find that some of my threads get no response or I don't get updates listed in "New Posts". This has caused me to miss out on posts etc...

Centre box on the middle section ritchy?

Yep only a tiny blow, its stainless so it wont be rusted not looked but will likely be a weld id think, centre sections are the same on all the zs's

How cheap is the question mate.just for the mid section?

Bring it down. I'll have a look.

Centre sections are a bigger diameter on 180's to the rest of the range.

20 squids?

What i would say the advantage with the scorpion is because the centre section is in 2 bits its adjusable to make it sit right.
