    Yeah I found it on there, but the postage is totally crazy! I'd pay the 18 Euro for the gasket in a blink but I have a real problem with 25 Euro for postage. I know they have a captive market but that is a real p*&s take.
    i'm in the same way, must order this but 25 euros of shipping killing me :-(
    maybe the other seal worth a try ?

          Does anyone have a UK source for these!!?? Just looked all over the interweb and can only find european and us source which are ÂŁ20 plus ÂŁ20 shipping and a relatively long lead time!!!

          (Thanks Brexiteers. Another shot in the foot! )

          I am tempted to go and set some made myself at this rate...

          Any insights would be appreciated...

          Cheers

                Have a look at this one, not used it myself but looks like it could fit.
                Triangle gasket for the downpipe to the exhaust manifold on VR6 models. To fit models with a front silencer or with exhaust pipe cooling

                        They are standard gaskets at any exhaust shop… nothing special

                                This does NOT fit unfortunately. Bore is correct, hole pitch is not.... (It could be modified to fit, but I will make my own from the sheet I bought...)
