Garages that will sort out my busted crossover pipe please??

Hi all,

after spending most of the weekend attempting to remove the crossover pipe, im gonna end up finding a garage, i know 4x4 challenger can do it, just wanted to explore any other options? anyone got theirs done? thats 50 miles away from me, im based in london, so radius of up to 7-80 miles should be fine.

also, would a second hand pipe do or is a new better? cars on 137k atm, and the pipe broke only cos the the w****** at the last garage where i got my clutch replaced removed the brackets!

please let me know, having my car like this since the past 2 months has killed me enough, want it sorted in the next week or two.

Thanks again for all your help!

I had a few things done at the same time when the body was off so can't remember. Give him a call, he stuck to his estimate on my job.
