seems cheap (at the moment that is)

Does anyone have experience with these? If so and they are ok what would be a reasonable price to pay?

Worth a punt if you can get it cheap.

Considering that a used Mongoose can be had for £120-£200 depending on condition and if it comes with a decat pipe I wouldn't want to pay too much for this one.

Same company has a buy it now listing for the same exhaust for £161.99 with free P&P

Bid of around £80 sound about right?

If you win it for £80 it's worth a try. if you don't like it you should be able to make that back easily when selling.

This may cause a problem as I would be fitting it myself on the road side

Lol yeah that was a pita to fit. It had been previously "modified to fit" We had to cut and re weld the support brackets. The tail pipes were also a bad fit and took a while to get them to look even in the holes.

Tools required... spanners, sockets lever bar, big hammer, ratchet straps, grinder, welder and as many swear words you can use.

Good luck dude.
