Exhaust repairs - SE?

[Leylandp76]

Hi, I recently bought a 1987 W124 300TE estate. It has a new rear exhaust section, and the front is in pretty good shape also, except for about the last foot of pipe where it joins to the rear section.

I really don't want to pay £162.50 plus labour to replace the entire front section, what I want is a small garage that will bend up and fit a new piece in place of the rusty part. Does anyone have any recommendations in North London for people who will do this? I have seen the same sort of job done in Australia in under an hour.

thanks

Alistair
