Hi can anyone help I'm trying to replace the exhaust on a 2006 Autotrail Arapaho finding it difficult to locate one or have one made. Has anyone else had this problem. Any advice please.

There are loads of Fiat ducato exhausts on ebay. If you can only find a left hand drive and need right hand it is a simple job to a welder, but this should not be an issue

I thought most ducato exhausts remained as per the original van with 1 box & side exit behind drivers door. That's if it is a Ducato?:giggle:

I have a RHD ducato 2019 but the exhaust exits on the passenger side. I assume it's like that because the hab door is on the drivers side.

The exhaust should exit on the drivers side so not sure why yours has the LHD exhaust fitted.

Mine is a 2009 Ducato with hab door on uk off side. My exhaust exits behind the lhs of the cab too.

Tyre and Exhaust centre in Bedford or Peterborough (for example) - book an appointment, they look at current layout and attachment points, rummage in the parts bin and make a stainless steel system to match and weld on necessary matching brackets and offer a choice of silencer box size depending on your preference. All for the same price as a factory supplied original car/van exhaust system.
Used this process on my old Toyota Celica from down pipe to tail pipe and cost £450 stainless steel fitted vs £790 for Toyota original exhaust system just to be supplied.

Have you tried “powerflow exhausts” there are branches at Melksham and Swindon …
Power flow made some decent twin exhausts for my Jag at a very reasonable price including back boxes and in stainless.

Go to a exhaust shop , particularly ones that specialise in stainless and they can copy and fit one while you wait .

eg https://www.powerflowexhausts.co.uk/Powerflow-Norwich

ps no knowledge of particular example firm given .
