The new one is just the same quality to look at, it’s heavy and well finish. And it’s no more money than a cheep aftermarket kit!

Unfortunately yes, a genuine Volvo.
The old exhaust that came with the car the back box fell to bits and phoned FRF and the back box and tailpipe was £70 on its own or whole kit around £144 delivered. Went with whole kit and fitted it. Lasted no more than 5 years for some reason and ended up buying aftermarket as was told the Volvo kit NLA on the forum.
It may of rusted out more as I generally parked on grass and in the last 3 years of ownership didn't do many miles as bought a 940
It did seem weighty and well made but in my case didn't last.
On my 940 I have a BM make exhaust inc downpipe, on for 2 years and its ok but fit isn't the best as blowing on over axle to back box join as one pipe bigger than other. Needs re sealing with the exhaust paste.
