Hi Jon
Well it is not the down pipe clip so it should be perfectly ok for a
short trip. I have had several springs fail over the years it has never
caused a problem, even when it was on the down pipe. Is that exhaust
stainless it looks a bit corroded?
Should be easy enough to get a clip welded on, but check with your
inspector if you are UK based. Otherwise, as Dave Watts recommends, CTK
Engineering can provide a replacement pipe, although when I needed one
they wanted the old pipe back and made one to match.
