Well after all the recent palava...... I finally decided to 'go for it'
Decided 6 years and 3 Controle Techniques 'advising' it was due plus recently needing to 'plug' it before the last test that 'it was time'
Jetex Stainless Chromium Steel is this. 'Cat back' system, a little under £400 delivered. I tried to go OE Volvo with my 'discount' but that came in at nearer £700
Not fitted yet....... will be soon tho'.... wonder how much it will 'alter' that luverly 5-pot burble
Have you got flashing blue lights under the car too?
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.
Have you got a sub wired up to the 8 track?
the only Volvos I have worked on in the last few years are rated to carry about 44 tons and have much bigger exhausts than that. A couple of the drivers own "modified" cars that have even bigger exhausts. One of them has more tail pipes than his engine has cylinders which always makes me giggle.

It is, apparently their custom made for N/A 850's. Yes it is smaller than the OE, but only the silencers, as they are 'straight through' . The OE Lenin the centre is mahoosive! Bore is the same.
One good thing about these is that they have an 'extra' join , so fitting will be easier. Will probs need to cut the old one to untangle it!
hehe.
