Its Flexflyte tubing. Expensive, but you can do that in one bit of it.

Very bendy 2" pipe from Europaspares

Don't use a 90 degree bend, put the filler on the top deck . Putting filler on the rear panel makes it a right pain to fill the tank . Next car will have filler inside the rear deck.

thanks will have a look i may not have room for it on the back rear panel anyway so was thinking about putting on top but will still need a tube with the reducer may take a trip to scrapyard first then buy somthing

Europa do some 90 degree bends. The pukka stuff is not cheap though.

agree, also means if your unlucky enough too be rear ended the filler pipe don't get ripped off leaving a gaping hole into your fuel tank
