  • Performance exhausts for Volkswagen T5, T6 and T6.1
  • Active Sound technology enhances tone and volume
  • Lifetime guarantee on all exhaust systems

Whichever Volkswagen T5, T6 or T6.1 Transporter you love, Milltek has a great-sounding performance exhaust to suit this massively popular ‘bus’ range.

From workhorse to show pony, there is a Milltek exhaust to suit the T5, T6 and T6.1 with options including discreet downturned outlets or Twin Oval pipes with a choice of black or polished tips.

Among the wide range of VW Transporter models catered for by Milltek, there are performance exhausts for the 199PS 2.0 TDi and 150, 180 and 204PS 2.0 BiTDi turbodiesels, and 150 and 204PS 2.0 TSI petrol engines, plus many more. For the full range, check out Milltek’s online configurator.

All Milltek exhausts for the VW T5. T6 and T6.1 are designed and built in the UK at the company’s Derby factories. They are made from aircraft grade 304L stainless steel and come with a lifetime guarantee, giving owners peace of mind and making this a cost-effective upgrade for any Volkswagen bus.

For those VW bus owners with diesel engines, Milltek’s unique Active Sound Unit (ASU) technology adds an external speaker and phone App that offers 11 selectable sound files to let the driver adjust the pitch, tone and volume of exhaust sounds coming through the speaker.

The ASU tech can be used on both front-wheel drive and 4Motion versions of the T5 and T6.

“We love Volkswagens at Milltek and the T5 and T6 lend themselves to a performance exhaust upgrade brilliantly,” says Kev Hall, Technical Operations Manager of Milltek. “We cover almost the entire range of T5 and T6 models, from the humblest diesel to the rarer 2.0TSI. Our Active Sound technology offers the best of all worlds – quiet when you need it, yet you can up the fun factor and volume at the touch of a button.”

Milltek exhausts for the T5, T6 and T6.1 range start from £442.90. For more details of the VW bus range of exhausts or to find a local Milltek dealer, visit: www.millteksport.com.

South West homeowners face seven-day waits for urgent repairs as tradie shortages continue to bite Fix Radio analysis shows the South West is among the slowest regions for urgent fixes, while Plymouth records one of the longest city-level waits in the UK The South West records an average 7-day wait for an urgent tradie fix. Plymouth records one of the longest city-level waits in the dataset, at 10 days. Across the 17 cities surveyed, the average wait for an urgent fix is just over 6 days. CITB says the UK construction industry needs to recruit the equivalent of 239,300 extra workers between 2025 and 2029. Analysis from Fix Radio shows that homeowners in the South West are facing an average seven-day wait for an urgent tradesperson fix, placing the region among the slower parts of the UK for repair response times. Based on Fix Radio’s analysis of city-level urgent repair wait-time data from Markel Direct’s Censuswide survey of UK homeowners, the findings point to continued pressure on trades capacity, local demand and labour availability across the region. The national picture remains highly uneven. The East of England records the shortest average wait at three days, followed by the North East on four days, the North West on 4.5 days and London on five. Wales and the South East each average six days, Yorkshire and the Humber sits at 6.5, while the South West, West Midlands, Scotland and Northern Ireland all come in at seven days. At the other end of the scale, the East Midlands records the longest average delay at nine days, leaving a six-day gap between the fastest and slowest regional averages in the dataset. The research also found that 44% of homeowners have already delayed repairs because of the cost of hiring a tradesperson, while city-level data shows waits stretching as high as 10 days in Plymouth for urgent issues. That makes the South West one of the clearest examples of how regional pressure can build when local demand, household repair needs and labour constraints begin to overlap. Set against a construction workforce already under strain, the figures point to a region where availability remains a growing issue for both customers and tradespeople. CITB forecasts that the industry will need to recruit the equivalent of 239,300 extra workers between 2025 and 2029, with the UK construction workforce expected to reach around 2.75 million by 2029. From Fix Radio’s perspective, the findings reflect a wider story around availability, local demand and the challenge of keeping enough skilled people in the pipeline. Waiting times are not only a sign of homeowner frustration. They also show where order books are full, where capacity is tight and where the wider conversation around skills and recruitment is becoming harder to ignore. In the South West, where regional averages are already above the national benchmark and Plymouth stands out as one of the slowest locations in the dataset, that pressure is becoming increasingly visible.
