Thanks for that link: I've bookmarked it as they not only have Perkins but they stock other engine parts and they supply worldwide(?)

Have you tried Caterpillar for parts?

I'd be surprised if you couldn't get parts for a 4 108.

I've been dealing with a crowd in Perth West Australia "Alllights" who stock Perkins parts.

Although I'm now sorted thanks to you guys, just thought I'd let you this...

Just had an a email quote in from one of those Australian companies for the four pipes. BEFORE postage, the price is 9.5 times more expensive than I've just paid.

Be careful if using those companies lol

The ones I've been sent actually came from DiPerk, but via a distributor. DiPerk will not sell direct to the likes of you and I.

No!......Obviously a mistake has been made somewhere along the way! Ten times what you paid? (I won't have it)
I often buy items internationally and prices are pretty much on par from country to country.

Anyhow it's good you got what you wanted.

If nobody else has mentioned it someone is selling them on eBay on a regular basis.

Sorry, that was meant to read 5.5 times. Still a huge markup
