Does anybody know of a trustworthy Powerflow dealer in the West Midlands please?

One who is prepared to take on out of the ordinary exhaust fabrication?

Thanks :)

The S type diesel has an Achilles heel, whereby the exhaust develops a crack just by the flexi. It can happen on both banks. The Jaguar solution costs £1500, which is to replace the flexi / downpipe wiyh exactly the same component, allowing the same fault to develop some time in the future.

There is a bodge which costs £500, and I'm also aware that a competent Powerflow exhaust fitter can adapt a Powerflow flexi to solve the problem permanently and I understand it costs approximately £60 - £ 80 :)

Amazing really, do not know about the Mini and 1100 but certainly the 1800 from the 60s had the same problem of a flexi pipe cracking - marvellous that engineering innovation has not progressed in 50 years - still, at £1,500 a nice little earner for Jaguar.

Yes Sir, we have you over a barrel.
