I don't know of any supplier in the UK, but "Podinox" in France manufacture stainless exhaust pipes for 504cc. Not cheap, but it lasts a lifetime.

You could always inquire about a UK distributor or check how it could be shipped to the UK.

Exhausts are made to measure but, in the case of the 504cc, no problem, they've made those before. Still, Podinox require the following for any inquiry:
- Make and model
- Engine model
- Year of manufacture

In your case, this should be a Peugeot B12, Model Year 73 with a 1971cc XN2 4cyl engine.

Do you have a problem with your cooling fan? There is a recent post about this on the forum of 504cc.com; it may be of interest to you...

Thanks for feedback.

I got 2 prices-
£690 supply only www.quicksilverexhausts.com (no discount for club!)
£570 fitted www.stainless-exhaust.com.
Both a bit to much as my car has not got 25yrs life left in her.

rang around a few motor factors who listed a full steel system for 504ti, but couldn't confirm if it would fit cab.

Got a NOS steel system from dean hunter for £120 ! excellent value.

Checked out the 504 forum (My French is poor so used altavista bable fish) and what they have done is what I propose (assume its the post with the pics of escort fan?).
I have ordered a Pacet fan from demon tweeks £84 and intend to fit to front of rad and remove original.
I had to many problems with original and contact set broke last year and ended up tightening bolts so fan was permanently engaged.

Got the idea from seeing a V6 last year with one fitted.

Will post some pics when i fit.

Prices you obtained are quite usual for stainless steel exhausts, but £120 from Dean Hunter, woaw, I'm speechless.

The exhaust of a 504Ti saloon would fit but after being cut to adapt on the Coupé.

Cooling now sorted, fitted a Pacet fan and removed the old fan.

The pacet fan fits neatly to front of rad and is wired via a small relay and uses the stat in rad. Have wired it from permentant live so runs on when the car stops, hope this will also help with the "hot" start problem 504's seam to get.

Did have some nice pics of how i built the unit up, but my daughter deleated them!!

total cost wa £89.
