if your using a Defender spec 200tdi then you could make the TD downpipe fit or get the correct Defender 200tdi pipe. if it's a Discovery type then better to either make a pipe up or the Steve Parker version.

Exhaust flexi doesn't last long lapperz, I tried it in several locations on exhausts over the years and within a couple of months it has split.

Time to learn to weld if you can't already

That said I used a flexi link on my Td5 and was really impressed with the quality of it. It welded really well and was quite a substantial thing. Good price too.

So if you were to cut the exhaust flange you could weld it directly to it - only question is if it would flex enough for you.

Here is a thread with pics of my flexi pipe being fitted.

This is the stuff I bought.

nop it wont bend any where near enough to get the sharpness required if it is of required thickness to pass an mot hence i have a lenght sitting in the workshop after trying this myself
