? Only in Orkney

 So it was obvious the exhaust had a hole in it. You could probably hear it from the bottom of the hill. 


And I was expecting them to replace the bit that had fall off/got a hole in it/come apart.  Usual cost, from memory is ~£100 upwards.

And I took it into the local ( perhaps only) Exhaust &tyres place I've seen on Orkney.

And  a part of it had split into 2, and so they had mended it.
I cant recall anything like this happening when I was 'down South' 

Total cost £40.80

Shame about the 200 miles + and ferry crossing if you wish to take advantage of theis in the future.
