Leon 1.8 FR, Res Delete in West Midlands?

Hi All,

I'm looking into getting a res delete done on my Leon, just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for garages to get this done at?

I'm happy to let the garage sort the pipes and installation, but i've also found some on ebay and could just buy this and get it installed https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seat-Leo...silencer-delete-pipe-deres-pipe-/323437971542 no expert but it looks good to me but expensive for just the pipe alone.

So far been quoted £75 by one garage in Birmingham for the pipe and installation but after looking at their reviews I might have to give that a miss!

Autotechnik in Rowley Regis are ace... but you pay for the expertise. MidlandVW in Cannock are my regular garage. If your more over Coventry way R-Tech pitstop garage I highly recommend

I'm in Coventry so I think i'll try R-Tech, their reviews look quite good.

No worries. Yeah, R-tech are really good. I've had work done by them a couple of times and booked back in mid next month.

Just an update, gave R-Tech a call however they said they can't do my Leon - All good though, called MidlandVW, ordered the res delete pipe and they'll fit it so we'll see how it goes next week.

Weird... oh well... you'll be alright at MVW. They've done 95% of the modifications on my car.
