Gerlach exhausts?

[nigw]

Hi,

After a 3 year break from Mk5 Golf GTI ownership, I've just purchased another one. It has recently been fitted with a stainless steel exhaust (mid-box delete), but I'm putting it back to standard.

I was looking at used OE, but people seem reluctant to post them, so I've been searching for suppliers of new standard-type ones (not many!) - has anyone come across Gerlach exhausts? It's a German brand and there are some ok reviews for other cars, but nothing mentioning the Golf GTI.

Cheers

Depending where you're based, you might be able to pick up a used OEM system from the likes of BCS for a few quid.

I left mine with them when I got their full system fitted - through laziness - and I'm sure it was in decent nick, so you might find they've got some lying around.

I don't have any experience of the quality of Gerlach unfortunately, but maybe someone else can offer some opinions.

Hi, ok - thanks for that. Unfortunately I'm not near BCS. Hopefully someone has tried gerlach or can suggest an alternative source!

Cheers

I've still got my full oem system sat in my garage. Whereabouts are you?

Hi Craig, I'm in Edinburgh, but can arrange a courier easily as long as the thing can be wrapped up (bubble wrap etc). Feel free to PM me.

The "aftermarket" standard ones are about £75 brand new plus delivery for the mid and rear boxes, and used ones are anywhere from £25-£60 plus delivery, hence wondering which to go for.

Did exact same myself :D saw the shiny new exhaust and suddenly didn't want my old one
